How do I use Trip 1 and Trip 2 in the driver information center (DIC)?
YourMechanic
The Trip 1 and Trip 2 feature in the driver information center (DIC) allows you to keep track of how many miles your car has traveled since the last trip odometer reset. Accessing Trip 1 and Trip 2 is very easy: 1. Press the MENU button until the DIC displays Trip/Fuel Information Menu 2. Use the toggle buttons to scroll to either Trip 1 or Trip 2, then press SET/CLR 3. To clear and reset the current trip odometer, press SET/CLR again.

Brakes and gas pedal 1979 GMC C1500
Hello - I would first check the throttle return spring (https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/how-to-troubleshoot-a-car-that-doesn-t-respond-to-the-gas-pedal-by-jessica-howe) at the carburetor - to make sure it's still there, and connected properly so that the throttle default position is "closed".

Can you replace just the hydraulic line in steering rack or does the entire rack have to be replaced?
The individual lines can be replaced but that is only worthwhile if there are no other faults with the rack. Also, inasmuch as the rack will probably have to be removed from the vehicle to replace an individual line, there...
My car won't accelerate fast even if I have the gas pedal all the way down
This may be a result of low transmission fluid (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/transmission-fluid-service) or potentially a faulty transmission control module.
