Re: throttle/frequency valve sticking

["jtrealty@xxxx " <jtrealty@xxxx>]

It sounds like someone has been fiddling with the adjustments on the 
idle stop, air intake, and micro switch. Make sure at idle position on 
the throttle that the microswitch is actually working, if necessary 
check with a meter. Next tighten all 3 screws on the air intake 
LOOSELY. Visually check all of the hoses, vacum, idle motor, etc. for 
correct routing and leaks. When hot disconnect the cold start valve 
on the off chance it is still sending in fuel and raising the idle. If 
it changes the idle speed then that system is causing the high idle. A 
bad pressure regulater could also affect idle but to check it you need 
a pressure gauge setup.
