off & is hard to restart unless i pump the gas &
throw it in Drive really fast. & then while im driving,
once my RPM gets past 2 & 3 lines...it revs up
uncontrollably & wont accelerate past 50

Find your fuel line under your hood and look for a cap(normally green). Remove the cap and press the valve with a screwdriver. If fuel dose not spray out then your fuel pump is failing and needs to be replaced.
