Too late, I found out. Well the way to remove the p/w motor is removing the door panel, peeling the plastic sheet thats over the door,remove speaker,thru that opening is where you'll pull out the motor,only three screws.

Just an idea but try lubing everything with graphite.

I have heard of this happening alot with the bbk t-b, throttle plate sticks at idle. You might can try teflon spray if lubing everything with graphite don't work.. Hope you figure it out...

Try to get the lube on the throttle shaft, if I'm not mistaken thaere is a seal where the shaft goes thru the TB and sometimes it will dry out and cause the stick.
