Since our RC51s throttle bodies are equiped with a 2 cable set-up.... Meaning, 1 cable opens the butterflies, which we all know what happens here.. while the other cable "CAN" close the throttle, should the return spring not work!...?? Did you try to close it manually or just let go of control of the throttle and say... OH Shit,.(Painic). she's not slowing down!?? LOL which happens More then anyone will admit to.
I had a stuck throttle issue because of a frayed throttle cable, the one on the top (which is the return cable I think?). It would only return if I opened the throttle WTFO, manually shutting the throttle did nothing? 1st time it happened was NOT COOL. Really catches you off guard.
