High RPM Not Good!

[Goon]

Hey All

Was out in the town tonight and had a near miss after some ******** ran a redlight and almost got cleaned up, 1 sec differnece 4 sure! so i booted my car to avoid it and now my rides rev'n hard! i tried the slow idle didnt do crap, but if i push the plunger in on the vaccum ithe idle drops to id say normal..

to close tonight...

I was gonna say maybe the throttle got stuck a little when you booted it. Did the carby get stuck open a little way? Hmmm...I dunno. Good that you didn't get hit though. That'd just be bad!!!

Nah i gave my ride revs, shes driveable, runs hard and fast but i know its not good for it, it hurt to stop at a stoplight such real high revs..i had to get it home

my rpm gauge had to cut out on me today, i think the gauge is screwd.

so i dont know what its idling at but 55+ vaccum is allot in N

Yeah tell me about it, my gf didnt even see it coming, until i booted my ride...i know ill see that car again, it was one of a kind - white magna 98-99, with a blue chrome bottom


Ive fixed it anyway, was just a bent wire tie on the throttle, was getting caught.

I'm still here and so are my girls, thanks to quick thniking and commodore power

Yeah watch out for anything that might catch on the throttle lever. On my car, there are a couple of hoses very close to the throttle lever that I had to cable tie up or it could catch on the lever and I'd be in trouble
