a little d jet help here Options

[nickg]

ok, my 76 2.0 car is acting up a bit. here is the problem
starts perfect...even at 0 degrees here.
if you take up the slack on the throttle cable, just as it comes to pick up the throttle, it pos and stumbles. if you open the throttle it goes away
so i go on pelican and adjust the throttle switch as per the instructions....i notice the throttle body is a bit sticky, the shaft is a bit worn. i found the switch was very difficult to adjust...it has a lot of adjustment @0 ohms
so i set it per the tech article, install it and it fires right up to a 2000 rpm idle.....i tried adjusting it down to no avail. so i tinker the switch a bit (unplugging it causes the car to run real rough)and it settles down. now if i take the slack out of the cable...it gets to where the throttle just cracks and it revs right up...it basically blips itself to about 1800-2200...but then settles right back to idle if i let off the throttle pedal....should it be that sensitive? the car has a pertronix(which sucks because i just bought one...anyone need an extra?) the vacumm lines look to be ok...even pretty new i have the factory manuals on cd but they are crap for fi diagnosis....they use a break out tool and don't list specs that i saw. i did not set up the timing light, i am going to change the plugs and wires first...any suggestions?
