if you tap the gas after it starts it wont do that. or you can cap off the aws valve hoses

I tried that. Reved it to about 2000 and it went back to 1500. I even stuck it in 1st and drove about a meter to see if that would stop it but no luck. Where are the AWS hoses. Do I clamp them off only when it warming up or all the time?
