It really is nice and smooth when cold absolutely no binding at all, soon as it gets heat into, binding. So frustrating!
Well, call me a noob, but when I had my eight, it did the exact same thing you are referring to...it did it with 3 different engines to boot....I spent hours on the throttle linkage too....I have not had a stuck carb in my three rides after I got rid of the 8ight....the 8ight is a good and fast car, but the throttle servo setup and linkage is very, very picky...good luck with it
