Like the title states, recently my 58mm bbk has been sticking at WOT. Scared the crap outta me the other day. Nothing like a little adrenaline rush when you release the pedal and its still pullin full speed ahead. Anyways, I took a closer look and it looks as though the return spring on the passenger side is loose when in the closed position, and upon WOT it gets tight around the "spool" portion of the t.b. to the point where the spring itself winds up tight and seems to coil bind and keep the throttle open. Any suggestions or anyone had this happen to them? Im going to try cleaning the spring area with brake clean or such, and then spraying the spring with a white lithium spray or silicone spray.

 

if you have a K&N CAI check to make sure the screw isn't getting cought on the TB, happened to me on my 6, woah scary...

 

Howd you get it to become 'unstuck' and not over rev?

 

smacked the throttle to the floor and released it quickly and it let go thank god, because i was coming up on some cars pretty damn fast.

 

lol, this happened to a friend of mine when they were taking a freeway off ramp.. goosed it with WOT once and the throttle stuck.. bad timing, they went off road into the grass Made it out OK though..
