RE: IML: sticky throttle



The linkage could be hanging up on the bottom of the air cleaner.  I assume that while diagnosing and working on the problem the air cleaner is off and out of the way.  When the air cleaner is replaced it might be rubbing just enough to snag.

 

Also, does the car have auto-pilot?  If so, have you tried unhooking the linkage from the servo under the hood?  The servo might mysteriously be trying to maintain a speed for you.

Hi All,

 

About a month and a 1/2 ago my throttle on the 67 lebaron starting sticking , it would remain at whatever was the fastest speed I drove at, I had to tap the accelerator HARD to unstick it.. I went and put a stronger return spring on it and solved the problem, until last week and its doing it again. If I work the accelerator by hand it seems to work free. I researched the archives and did a web search on sticky throttles but had no luck . any body ever had this problem. thanks, mike
