i know this is an old post but i have the same problem with my thottle, after thinkin for a while about it, i came up with the idea of shortening the springs in the carbs a little at a time, this is where the problem is coming from,, too heavy of a spring for the slides, just remember to take a little at a time!!! and make sure they're even! good luck
