I cleaned out the throttle body on my 924 then re-assembled everything and went for a ride. After an hour or so the throttle became stuck wide open! I turned the key off and it would not stop, pulled the battery terminal, still screaming. Finally I grabbed the main coil wire and got a nice jolt but it stopped. I pulled the throttle body off and found half of a rather large towel that I used to clean out the intake tube.
