I tried searching but couldnt find anything. I have a 1995 SC1 and when im driving (hot or cold) and when I go to shift, push in the clutch, the rpm''s will stay there for about 2-3 seconds and sometimes climb. Its pretty annoying. When I had my ford contour SVT, it did the same thing, and it was an easy fix. Anyone ever experience this? Thanks

Could very well be the trottle plate is sticking in the thorttle body ....... might be time to clean it.

Just thought I would put in my two cents.

I had a sticking throttle body a while back, which would stick closed, and would have to push hard to get it out of idle, easy to take apart and clean, but once taken apart. But it seems very unlikely that this is your problem, and I don''t imagine that it can stick "open" very easily.

Two other friends of mine with Saturns have similar problems that have not been completely resolved yet. But, these two links seems to address the problem pretty well.

Have had the trottle body sick on 100dreds of S-CARS .. Start by cleaning your thottle body. It will cost you one can of spray injector cleaner.Edited by: sw2cam

i also have this problem on my 95 SL and it annoys the sh*t out of me, i''ve inspected the throttle body but it seemed fine but i will try to disassemble and clean the body and hope for a change
