Have purchased another TB so will take advice on the above.

About time you bought another one isn’t it?

A whatty what? Do tell me more.

Wondering if this is normal as I’ve only just noticed it or if it is a problem. Pressing on the throttle very quickly (in neutral) I can get my foot to the floor and release before the engine responds. Pressing on the throttle gradually, it responds fine. Can’t remember if it’s always been...
