possible idle switch misadjustment?

["Richard W. Schauer" <rws@xxxx>]

Hi, my name's Richard and I'm new to the list. I just got my DeLorean
#4411 on Monday, and one thing that strikes me as suspicious is the
throttle behavior. When you're in neutral and press very slowly down on
the accelerator, the tach sits right at idle around 900 rpm for like
1/2 inch of pedal travel. Then I hear a soft click and the engine speeds
up to (ultimately) 2500 rpm. Slowly releasing the pedal puts you back
down at idle. There seems to be no in-between. This makes starting
moving a little dicey, since you either do it at idle, or you take off
fast. Is this normal for this car, or is it misadjusted somewhere?
