The plates rest against the throttle stop with the engine off, no matter how softly I release the pedal, or cable at the TB. Turn the engine on and do the same thing and they stick. Maybe vacuum is pulling the plates down and making them bind.On Mon, Sep 23, 2024 at 12:24 PM BruceHislop <bhis...@gmail.com> wrote:What is your IAC counts at warm idle. If you have say 15+ counts at warm idle, you could open the throttle plates a bit more until the IAC counts drops to about 5 or so. This may hold the throttle plates far enough off the bore that they don't stick.

I always set the idle plates with a .007" feeler gage with the idle stop screw. They will never stick at that setting, and the IAC can easily adjust idle speed.

IAC of 5-10 is pretty much right on. To achive this, the throttle plates need to be open from .007 - .010". Do this with a ribbon feeler gage. I have done 7 or 8 Howell EBL systems this way and it is a "set it and forget it" procedure. Also, be really sure you have the correct base gasket under the throttle body. Any vacuum leaks here will make any tuning efforts futile. (don't ask me how I learned this)😩
