The other story was how I was driving my rusty 912 in high school and the idle started rising. The car really was rusty...How rusty?

So rusty the "b" pillars were rusted through, and in sharp corners doors would fly open due to chassis flex.... but hey, it was a porsche.

There were 4 girls in the car (5 total including me). Not able to fully understand why the idle was rising, I kept loosening the idle screw until it met the limit.When it hit the limit, I started bending the tab in to loosen it further. (there were girls in the car... no time for common sense diagnostics)

But the idle kept rising. The car was sitting low. It had the right stance.

When I got home, I noticed the torsion tube had broken completely loose from the chassis. As the torsion tube rotated backwards and the car lowered, the motor was moving backwards, which stretched the gas cable.
