have you checked your transmission linkage on your throttle body. It should be the linkage closest to the passenger side strut tower. Make sure it hasn't fallen off, if so immediately replace it, if not the throttle pressure may need to be adjusted.

sounds like the tv cable is pulled out to far. there is a good video on youtube that explains how to set a tv cable properly.
