Suzuki Aerio SX 2004 4.0 cyl 38,000 miles. After starting my car and putting it into gear, the gas peddle sticks and will not let me move unless I push down hard on the peddle. After I do that it jumps and accelerates very quickly until I let off of the peddle. I spoke with the dealership and they said it was carbon buildup in the fuel line that was making it stall and that it would cost 160.00 to have it flushed. They told me to take it to an auto parts store..I took it to AutoZone...they would have something I could put in my fuel tank that would help. The clerk at AutoZone said there was a fan under the hood that just needed cleaned with a toothbrush and that it was not the fuel line but it was a carbon buildup. Any help I could get would be great.
