    Sudden Acceleration While Parking

    Dirty Throttle body and possibly also dirty MAF. But more possibly it was not in P. Would like to look at those links also if they exist. Dave

    Trying to figure out if blown head gasket

    you need to do a compression test to see where the coolant is going. The 4.4 engines are not known for head gasket issues, but it can happen. Dave
