When i give the car some gas the throttle does not go all the way back to an idle it stays up a bit. I have to reach down and pull then gas pedal back out...would this mean my throttle link is too short or too long?

Kickdown Spring possibly could be worn!! Just a guess?????

 

I'm thinking throttle return spring. Check under the hood when it is "stuck" and see if it is hanging up on anything. If not, try a new throttle return spring.

Good luck!

 

That is what I meant but got the two springs mixed up!!!

 

yea its a brand new spring...the double over kind that came with my edelbrock...maybe i need a stronger one.

Sometimes on the double springs when u stomp on it the inner spring and outer get caught together causing it to stick.Mine used to do the same thing so i took off the outside one.

 

I had the same problem, mine would stick slightly but only when the engine was running. Otherwise it would return to correct position. I finally just put two springs on to force the throttle shut. I can post a pic tomorrow if you want.

 

yea please post when you get a chance

check for improper linkage setup the po had mine in the wrong spot so it felt like crap
