The throttle is sticking, check on the throttle body for something holding it open, the reason it stops when you shut it off is because you stop the flow of fuel.

Why does my mercury villager make a loud noise when accelerating that stops when you take your foot off the pedal?
If this is a general noise, it could be the transaxle. When you are accelerating, the engine is pushing the gears, and when you let go of the pedal, the vehicle starts to shift back down. If this is an engine noise, it could be predetonation or a valve problem.

The origin of the idiom pedal to the metal?
It's a reference to driving, esp cars from the '50s. The throttle is wide open when the (gas) pedal is fully depressed. With really old cars the floorboards are metal so with the "pedal to the metal" your accelerating as much as possible.

This happens rarely, but has happened to me a few times. What I have learned is, I depress the pedal and start it up again, and this seems to work (leave the pedal depressed and release when it starts up).
