| Post subject: | Idle/ throttle messed up!! |
Hi guys when im driving and i go into neutral my sierra just idles at 1500, everynow and then it raises up to 2000 - 2500 and as of lately had been very high, I just have to let the clutch off without any accelerator and it drives off. I had a dig around here and tried filling up the radiator with the cap off and warming the engine, but that didnt work. So then i checked the throttle in my engine bay and it doesnt look right. The spring looks like it has come off and the the throttle is stuck down... How can I fix it? is there someone who can fix it for some cash or beer, looks like it would be 5 minute job for someone who knows what theyre doing. Ive attached photos

The munted spring bit is a wax choke. You can probably disconnect it until you can find a replacement, but it has been a while since I looked into a zook engine bay, so I could be wrong. |

Its the choke spring. Not having this spring connect will prevent the choke flap closing hence high idle. |

Pull off the carb inlet, and see if there is a butterfly that is moving freely that is connected to the busted spring. If there is, wire it open. That will temporarily get you going a bit better. |

if the water lines to the choke are blocked , wiring open that choke arm will not reduce the high idle. |
