First of all Welcome to the forum !!!

You say it was owned by an elderly couple.
Chances are it will go even quicker with a throttle reset.

Throttle Body Reset

1. Get in your car

2. Turn the key to the on (not start) position, the position just before the starter turns over.

3. Press the gas pedal to the floor with the key in the "on" position.

4. Hold the pedal to the floor for five seconds, then turn the key back
to the "off" position (don't remove the key), then release the gas
pedal.

5. Wait 2 mins. for a full alignment.

6. Drive the car and ya might notice a difference in throttle response.
