I recently removed my plenums and throttle body on my 72 tii and when I reassembled it, the idle drops to 400 rpm after acceleration and after about 5 seconds it returns to normal, around 1100 rpm.

ANy ideas? I have check all my vacum conncections and they all appear to be right.

How about the connection from the throttle body to the throttle linkage? Can an out of adjustment condition there cause theses symptoms?
