Patrick, i drove the car pretty hard on Friday and Saturday, after shooting a bunch of carb cleaner, not WD40 (my usual, defiant self!), on that throttle shaft, and any other part of the carburetor that would hold still, but it made no difference. This AM I really had to put my foot on the pedal to move the throttle, then it "broke loose" and great thereafter. (BTW, the off idle performance is pretty good...and might be better with the new "red" pump cam, which should be here tomorrow. Timing remains nice and steady at 10° BTDC).

Would taking the carb off the car, and onto the bench help any?? I guess I can just live with it, but I like things to work the way they were intended. thanx s
