Why to check if your throttle is stuck
« on: February 11, 2013, 11:38:55 pm »
I pulled my apollo out to drive to school and it was running good . i shut it down to get my stuff and go to turn it on and the throttle stuck. It cleared my 15 foot wide road and flew right in the ditch. buried it deep but it didnt wreck nothing. If sleds could talk i think it would of said it tryed to commit suicide. :(
