I'm almost in the same boat. Mine sits or creeps and then takes off, jolting. I can see the double contact kick in and spark went it does move, but won't go over a 2 X 4. Theres a tm12 forum thats close to this problem.

I need to buy manual somewhere. Help Please

is your battery charged? if the truck is sitting doing nothing it should not have a problem unless it did before it was parked. the battery can get damaged from this though.
