Default Sticky Throttle 328 GTS

Hi Everyone,

I'm new to this blog and I'm excited to discuss issues with you!

I own a 1989 328 GTS with about 30K miles on it. It runs great, but the throttle will stick in higher revs, especially when it gets hotter. I've tried several carb cleaners on the linkage, and they don't work for long. What has worked longest so far is powdered graphite, but it too will eventually fade.

I would appreciate any help with this problem.

Thank you!

Tim

Is it the linkage or some type of vacuume leak ? The air flow sensor plate could be hanging up. When they came from the factory new they ad a big glob of white greese all over the throtle linkage to help with this problem. If it is rusty try a penatriant like WD40 on the linkage.
