1998 V70 manual trans backfire on 1-2 shift V70-XC70

Hi Klaus,

I had not noticed previously but the effect you described is happening. If I accelerate in any gear, then push in the clutch and simultaneously release the throttle, the engine revs increase several hundred RPM in the next 1-2 seconds then drop back to idle RPM.

The 1998 engines have a throttle cable, I confirmed that nothing is mechanically sticking when the throttle is released. What causes the overrev since the throttle plate immediately closes when I release the throttle ?

Can you point me to a good writeup on removing and cleaning the throttle body and IAC ?

The setup looks similar to my 940. I have never had to clean the 940 throttle body - the car has always run well and has about 190K miles now.

Thanks,

Mike
