It is most likely a faulty accelerator potentiometer. If you replace it make sure that you also replace the plastic gears. If there is the slightest amount of wear in the gears then it causes this issue.

If it is 350 series,you need laptop or test module to aknowledge the code.
Try to check the micros in the brake pedal.
