disintended nondeceleration....

[jim rose]

soooo.....    my 5ktq is having some issues slowing down.

when i let off the gas or downshift, the motor decelerates VERY slowly, 
giving a "cruise-control" effect. it is an intermittent problem, about 70% 
of the time. also some rmp's are "stickier" than others. idle is also high 
when the problem rears its head. 11-1500 from it's usual 8-900.

check of the linkage turned up nothing apparently out of place. i didn't 
want to just add some slack in the adjuster bolt at the throttle lever. 
there are 2 VERY suspiscious vaccum doodas right there attached to the 
throttle arm/lever. any thoughts?

thanx, all

ps - i think my car is faster when i wax it. something about hydrodynamics 
and surface tension i think.
