ok so i noticed like after i got a new clutch that sometimes my throttle will stick and start accelerating and the only way to stop it is by pushing the clutch in. I tried braking when it was moving and it kept moving. i searched and saw that it could be gunk in the throttle body that's making it stick like that. it's happening every once in a while and it's kind of scary lol. just wanted to know if anyone else ever had something like this happen?

Dude, that is super dangerous. If I were you i wouldnt take any chances with my life, or those around me. I would immediately change the cable clean the hell out of the TB, and check to make sure nothing is causing the pedal to bind. Just my opinion though.

Your throttle cable is probably getting stuck on something.

Whoever did your swap did a ghetto job of re-installing your throttle cable on the new throttle body
