Tell him to let off the throttle...lol j/k ask him if he uses the adjuster screw under the throttle side housing... I use that for a makeshift cruise control and occasionally will forget to loosen it and the throttle won't back all the way off...

Tell your buddy to connect the Power Commander to a computer and run the utility to calibrate the throttle position (Hold down CTRL and press T).

I had the same issue. It could be in the map he's using. The map that I run had 5% added to the 0% line at 750 and 1000 RPM's. I took that 5% out and no more problem.
