Throttle Return?
I was wondering if anyone could tell me where to get what i believe would be a simple spring? Maybe not. But it's for my gas pedal. Problem is when i let off the gas, in neutral or gear, the throttle doesn't close all the way. I have to put my foot under the pedal and lift otherwise I sit at a red light burning gas.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Re: Throttle Return?
Springs don't usually fail that way. Can you push the arm on the throttle body closed with your finger to make the idle go down? Does it stick when the car isn't running? Have you tried cleaning the throttle body?

And I believe it sticks when off too, I'll go double check.
