Damn TB Mod, Yes I've searched and search, help me quik before RX across the Texas
okay I just did the TB mod while I had the intake manifold off and everything went fine except when I got my car started my idle rose up to 3k rpms for the first 30 secs or so (didn't do it before) then fell down to about 1500k and was jumping in between 1400-1600, vrmm vrmm vrmm vrmm ect...I'm thinking the throttle plates are sticking open somehow, but I am confused....please help!!!!
P.S. I've tried reseting the TPS, and idle and no effect...

you probbaly need to screw in the throttle stop screw on the top. that will close the plates more. a 1500 rpm idle is pretty normal after doing the TB mod. now you just need to lower it. 2 ways are that screw and the BAC.
although it should be a pretty steady high idle I think... you might have a vac leak..
I'm doing the TB mod right now so I won't know off hand what happens till it starts up tomorrow

Haven't we ALL heard this
did you use a new gasket? also all the nuts and bolts are back on the upper intake manifold (four nuts one long bolt).
How is the power? Is it all still there?
