help, my nytro wont start, no error codes

heres whats happened:
I started my sled to move it, let it warm up, after warming up I feather my throttle a couple times to start moving and it starts to mill snow.
I feathered the throttle a 3rd or 4th time and my engine revved up to impossible speed,torqued a belt and shut down.

I drug it into the shop, and have checked the following:
engine oil AND coolant - no unwanted mixing, levels good.
fuel: new
battery and starter: good and functioning properly
belt: removed

when I turn it over now, it rolls for a bit sputters, then tries to fire and jump into warp speed and I assume it cant manage this so it shuts down.

any suggestions? need more info?

please somebody give me a hand!

thanx in advance...
 
so after some serious thinking I decided to chase down everything else that could be wrong mechanically and there it was...

theres a 90 degree fitting with a crimp that connects it to the rest of the cable (that's the throttle cable just before it heads off to the throttle bodies) and the crimp had somehow bypassed and was laid over at an angle causing about 3/8 of an inch worth of cable tension.

push fit back together, fired up and voila! ordering a new throttle cable tomorrow morning! fresh powder tomorrow after work!

Awesome information, thanks for sharing, any idea how it all came to be? Any pics?
