I was going down the interstate cruising around 75 and some guy pulled out in front of me. I hit my brakes and my cruise didnt shut off i had to push in the clutch. Thank god that i didnt hit him because this is my only automobile. The cruise has worked great until today, after it did this i checked all of the linkage to the carb and it was fine so i dunno what its problem is anyone have any ideas?

There is a vacuum switch on the brake pedal. When you push on the brakes, it opens up and releases the vacuum that holds the throttle servo. The servo releases and the throttle goes back to idle. Check the vacuum switch to see that it is not stuck.
