Dan,
Another item to check is the installation of the throttle discs.  They 
are beveled on two edges to match the curvature of the inside of the 
throats.  If installed backwards there is the same effect as the 
throttle being advanced.  Hard to imagine one of the TSO advertisers 
doing this, but things do happen.
