Oh my f*ING god! Sorry, but I laughed so Damned hard. My car also has an issue accelerating. But I traced it to the complete LACK of a pedal.

No question about it, your fly by wire (or rod in this case) is defective. If only you had an Oslo scope to test the frequency of the problem, or a portable tube tester to check the tubes in the pre-solid state accelerator control.
That is good fun! I wonder how many people will view on YouTube and scratch their head at the hub mounted hand throttle.

funny, but not far from the truth. i have been reading the twin ultramatic manual and stb/sc letters. there were apparently some surging or sudden accelerating going on back in the day on the 55/56. one of the reasons had to do with one of the valve body pieces being put together incorrectly. i did this wrong in my youtube video, but noone caught it. i even asked about it and noone guessed. but, non-the-less, similar issues did exist for Packard.

Great video: I certainly hope that Pakard gets the problem fixed.

You must rate. How do you get your local Packard dealer to answer the phone? Regards John Harley

Yes, officer, I know that I was doing 58 in a 35mph zone. It was the unintended acceleration...
Oh, and you'd probably get better results with a Hickok 'black box!' Great video!
