I fitted my new inlet manifold the other day and after starting it up it was obvious i had air leaks and due to this it was idling at about 1300rpm! so i took it all off again the other day and replaced the gaskets and now the idling is fine. however since then i hav a problem with throttle response. when i take my foot off the throttle to change gear and put my foot back on again, it takes a second to open the throttle again and start accelerating. its ok further up the rev range, but just as it comes off idle it takes ages!
what could this be, vacuum pipe somewher?, throttle position sensor?
cheers
