Did a quick forum search with no luck, thought I'd throw a thread on here before I hit the garage and start digging...
Not a major issue, but took my '90 SE for a quick spin the other day. Left a stop light and had to get in the lead (hehehe) before two lanes turned into one. After a hard fought, yet convincing victory over my rival in the Buick LeSabre wagon beside me, I noticed that on lifting off the throttle in neutral the RPMs dropped to below 500 and the car stalled. Car runs perfect if I hold the pedal down slightly to keep it at a hair over 1000RPM....no other side effects.
Did I find a weak link in the throttle cable assembly? Anything to look for that commonly dies? Figured it was easy to ask in case somebody has done the same and could save me some looking.
Thanks in advance,
Jeff
