Re: 94 530i odd throttle problem

I fixed the problem. Apparently the ASC cable pulls the secondary throttle plate closed for a second and releases it at startup, however the plate would stick closed. When I stomped on the gas it would knock it loose and release it. So the reason it would not rev over 1500 rpm's was the throttle plate was closed. I adjusted the stop preventing the plate from closing to the point of sticking and now everything works fine. Also my ASC light is off now which was also on continuously.
