I sent this earlier today with a video.  I removed it and am trying again.

Sorry for the double post if it comes thru.

This has happened before and we've done some things,  added a vacuum line, lubricated the linkage as we thought that the throttle was sticking, check the idle screw thinking it loosened(SU's).  I fired it back up and the racing stopped but the idle now was at 2300rpm.  We had it set to 1100rpm.  Drove it home, parked it and had a couple of pints!
