weber throttle body

[MK1Scirocco16v at comcast.net (Dave Ewing)]

Along with what Drew said, I would add a fairly serious return spring as the
one on the TB isn't strong enough to start with and has weakened with age.
You can try it first but if you add another return spring (sort of like a
carb) then you'll get smoother response instead of an on/off feeling.  HTH!
