Acceleration failure SolvedSolved

Chevrolet Epica 2007  120000 miles
When driving at a certain speed with my Epica 2007 and it is accelerated, the vehicle suddenly loses control of the acceleration, maintains 1000 rpm, it blocks itself and the yellow engine alarm appears on the dashboard. I partially solve it by placing the speed lever en neutral, turning the engine off and then starting it again. When doing this, the acceleration is restablished but the engine light remains turned on. I would like to know which might be the failure.

Hello. At the entrance of the throttle body, there is a thick hose that is on top of the engine. Remove it once a month and clean that entrance with some cotton and alcohol. I had the same problem and it was because too much coal was acumulated there. Clean it the deepest you can.
