It appears the thottle was sticking so I wnet in and changed the cable - the current one was old anyway. After replacement (and making sure it was not binding with teh clutch cable) the motor will rev to the max - All the way to 7,000 rpm? Aside from what damage I could have done to the motor, what could be causing this other than a sticking cable? I am thinking of installing a stronger return spring and already lubed the throttle body, but was wondering if there is a vacuum hose that got disconnected or incorrectly reconnected to cause this? This is getting frustrating not to mention scaring me that I am going to do some real damage to my already questionable motor?
Thanks in advance! |

No vacuum hose will cause it to rev to 7000rpm. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)
Leave that thing off and pull the air cleaner. Is the butterfly squarely closed? Get it adjusted correctly, then make sure the pedal feels smooth through the whole motion a few times, then check to make sure the butterfly comes back to full close. |
