tb spacer problem
i installed my tb spacer today but i couldnt get the car to idle properly id get it to idle just below 1thousand then id tap the gas up to 3 thousand then the car starts to sputter like its gonna die out cause the rpm would play from 500 hundread to about 9 hundread rpms..
on my second attempt the car would rev at 3thousand rpm and i wouldnt even have to apply gas to take off.. but the car didnt sputter this time lke its gonna shut off.
anyone experience this before??? i really dont wanna play with the throtell idler much cause im sacred im gonna mess it up even more any suggestions or tips???...

i checked for gapping air around the tb but theres nothing... i keeped re-adjusting the brackets that extends the cable linkages and it got better each time the idiling.. but it would get worse once i started to drive it.. it would get stuck at like 3thousand rpms....

Sounds like a throttle linkage/adjustment problem to me, is it possible the throttle linkage is contacting something it wasn't before? Disconnect the linkage and check for smooth operation of the cable-it should move very easily. I'd also make sure nothing is contacting the throttle plate.

yea it was moving freelly before... it justwhen i rev it it would rev high and stay that way or it would go back down to like 500 rpms or so and jump up and down sputering... i tried re-adjusting the extension brackets for the cables and i would get it perfect on idle until i start driving then it would get weird

Humm that is wierd!, It kinda does sound like a vacuum leak to be sure use propain...and if it is not the vacuum, It is for sure a throttle linkage, and/or cable.......Oh did you put the return spring back on your throttle linkage?

yea i put the spring back on that was the only thing i disconected from the linkaged.
in the kit they gave me a extra bracket for extending the cables that are mounted on the plenum am i supposed to use that one too??? but were would it go...
