Chris, It is really important to fail open. Engine running at idle is useless in 
flight.

> I've got the throttle body, but I now have a question about the return 
springs.  Since it is an automobile throttle body, it is set to spring closed if 
the throttle cable fails.  Do I leave it that way, remove the srings totally so it 
fails in the curent position, or reverse the springs so it fails open?
