My Honda run-away like crazy

Car: Honda, Accord EX, 1991     -    Back to Fix-It    -    Honda Accord EX Repair Manuals

Q.I have a '91 Accord EX, with an automatic transmission and only about 55,000 miles on it. I would like to keep it as long as I can.
About two months ago, I had the timing belt replaced, and then the gas gauge, and then only a week or so ago a relay switch to the fuel pump, after it would not start. I was ok driving for about a day.
On the past Saturday, as I pulled front first into a parking spot at a shopping center, the car suddenly revved up and lurched forward, as if both the transmission and throttle had gone crazy, with a loud screeching and clunking sound.
I stopped it by I had the car towed back to my mechanic. He says that he has gone over every possible site for a problem and finds nothing wrong with the transmission and fuel system. At this point, I am very reluctant to drive it. What's your thinking on it?

More Info required Wow! That is great mileage on a 91 Accord. Did the check engine light come on while driving?
