I took my original unit and completely disassembled and cleaned it with some solvent and fine steel wool. I noticed that there are actually metal bushings in the pivot and mine were kinda worn and had some wiggle. I had another assembly so I I mixed and matched the best components, greased the bushings and put it back on the firewall with a homemade rubber gasket to seal out noise and heat. Next I re-evauated my linkage to my Edebrock carb and found more slop there too. I cured that with some junk I had on hand from some old parts carbs. After all was said and done, I made sure that flooring the pedal completely opened the throttle blades. (It didn't.) Now, my throttle works as good as new and I'm also enjoying the extra free ponies that I get with a wide open carb.
