So when I start up my engine the idle is fine, but if i accelerate the idle speed goes higher and if I accelerate more the idle speed goes even higher, I have to keep my finger on the brakes constantly, I checked servos etc several times... Its an OS .18 CV-R in a RS4 3 Evo.
Thanks,
 
I'm not a pro at this but it may be that your idle gap isnt goin back to where it is meant to be... sit you car on a stand or brick and check your idle gap after u open throttle and then release it..............(correct me someone if I'm wrong cos I'm not a pro, just tryin to learn)

you are correct.
 
this happened to me too! you just need to compress the spring on the throttle linkage more. it fixed it right away
 
I checked the idle gap several times so ill try richening the LSN, Ill let you know how it goes.
