[T3] Sputtering fixed


Serves me right for not listening to people here. I
re-cut the end of the pressure sensor hose on the
air-intake side and reattached it, thinking that would
be good enough and that I really didn't want to go
through the pain of putting a clamp on it.

I didn't realize it at first, but I had used 5/16"
hose on that instead of the 7mm that it looked like
would be a nice snug fit. So I finally took peoples'
suggestions and put a clamp on it. 

Problem solved. Well, mostly. It seems part of the
problem with the high idle is that my throttle is
sticking just a little because the spring doesn't pull
the throttle closed all the time, only when I punch
the throttle & let it go quickly.

But at least it's running so much better & not
sputtering anymore.

Thanks again folks...
