I'd Start with the Fuel Filter........

Re: Throttle problems...

Start with the Inexpensive Basics......<br /><br />Is it getting Fuel ?? Fuel Filters,.. Should be 2......<br />What do the Plugs Look Like ???? Change them Only if Necessary......<br />How about the Inside of the Dist. Cap ?? Corrosion ??,... Again, Change it Only if Necessary......<br /><br />How long has it been since it's Last Tune-Up ????

Also look at the ignition module. I've seen several that get water in the connecter and the terminals corrode and sometimes even corrode clear off.<br />The module and harness can be mounted either on the exhaust elbow or the distributor.
