240 High Rev Problem 200

Hey all, I've been having this problem with my 82 240 wagon. When I start it up, the engine revs up really high. There's nothing I can do to make it go down. When put it in drive, it goes down, but while i'm driving, it will accelerate on its own without me pressing the gas pedal. Also, sometimes it will not respond to me pressing the gas pedal. Anyone know how to fix this?
