Hey all,
What would you do about this? I have a D16z6 right now and whenever I shift higher than about 3k rpm the throttle sticks a little bit when I step on the gas again. It is getting a bit annoying! Im thinking it might be a vacuum leak or maybe I should clean my TB. Your thoughts?

check thottle cable to see if its getting caught on something

 

Also, clean out the inside of the throttle body!

 

Maybe spray some type of lube like wd40 on the spring on the throttle body.

 

High RPM = your gas pedal further down, right? Maybe your pedal is getting stuck behind the floor mat, it has happened to me before.

I think it opens fine, but after it decelerates after a shift it sticks closed and i have to apply a bit more pressure to snap it open. Im afraid it might be a vacuum leak goddamit! gracias.

hmm I dont have a floormat on my drivers side, maybe the carpet. I'll check

 

I used fuel injection cleaner spray and rubbed my finger around where the throttle plate closed. I had some gunk built up that was making it stick. Good luck.
