I checked the throttle cable and I can see it is not wrapped.
All the linkage seems fine, and I have the idle screws all the way out. I am even running an extra spring on the throttle bar to ensure that I get full return. Nothing seems to be binding. I am running an old original distributor with the injection point set removed, and the vacum advance disabled. Am I wasting time chasing throttle cable functions or is it just the stinking distributor? |

If the plate is moving inside the dizzy, it could act like a throttle sticking with idle jumping up and down.
