[QUOTE="NC Ryder, post: 951820, member: 18226"] I'm the second owner of this 2006 AE, I don't believe the prior owner did the throttle spring release so I followed the instructions on this site. Acceleration works much smoother now, love it. Decelerating requires pushing the throttle all the way forward, which I can get used to. It's the complete stopping I'm having some issues with. Some background first. With the AE, and I believe this is part of the auto clutch workings, there seems to be a 1st gear and a 1 'low'. In first gear when I brake it will reach a point where it feels like it is about to stall and then it automatically (without any intervention from me) seemingly downshifts into a 1 Low. This allows (at least for me) better control for low speed manuevering. With that said, what I see now after the throttle spring release is when I start to come to a stop it does that downshift to what I'm calling 1 Low, but that it still wants to keep moving even with the throttle rolled all the way forward. I have to stay on the brake for 1 Low to completely disengage the forward movement now, vs before when I was off the throttle it would simply come to a stop on its own. Anyone else seeing that after the throttle spring release? Is there another adjustment I need to make? And, for my own knowledge, what's the right terminology for this '1 Low'? :D Thanks! [/QUOTE]
