Default Professional Products T/B

Anyone running one having issues with the throttle sticking open when you let off the throttle? What can be done to fix this? Cause i can push the throttle lever closed and idle will go back down. I just installed this and have to get tuned in the morning! thanks!

I would have tested it while it was off the car to see if it would stick or not...but I would have taken some very fine grit sandpaper (like 2000) and just gently smooth off the edges of the butterfly.

i heard a lot of good things about the Professional Products t/b's. when im ready to put it back on, i may have had the throttle cable too tight, or ill just switch the spring and rotor from the stock t/b over to the new one. ill figure it out.
