Hello gang,

Last summer I had my carbs (HS-2's) rebuilt, with new throttle 
shafts\bushings, etc.. I am noticing that this season, sometimes when I hot 
start the the car, the engine immediately revs to 3500 rpm or so, and takes 
a good 30 seconds to come back down. This only happens on hot starts, say 
when I am running errands and going into a store for 5-10 minutes. I am not 
touching the choke or gas pedal, just cranking the engine over to start.

Any thoughts out there?
