On point #1 - Could be FPR or clogged Fuel filter, maybe fuel pressure is low from pump.
On point #2 - Check to see that the Cruise rod is not dropped and jambing the accelerator.
On Point #3 - Replace the Trans fluid a few times, It may be overdue and not shifting.

Scott.

V8ers,

I have a patient 1990 white v8 that I need to fix, sell or donate to 
the 
local high school.

Car has 3 big problems.

1 - car idle goes up and down while in park -
2 - accelerator doesn't work - when I rev the engine it barely goes up
3 - car stays in first.

2 lesser problems

- leaking steering pump
- rear control arm bushings worn

If, I could get the first 3 done I might save the car.  Otherwise it 
might 
be a good parts car for someone.
