Default Re: Fast Idle

If the plates are sticking, find what is causing it and unstick them.

The secondary plates have an allen screw adjustment for the stop on closing. You have to remove the carb to adjust it.

Default Re: Fast Idle

Hey,
Today I checked, and they dont look like they are sticking at all, The secondaries are completly closed. I noticed that the idle will vary. Sometimes it will be high, and then I rev it a little, and it drops down, and when it is really low, I rev it and it raised the idle. Sometimes it does it when I dont touch anything. The rpms are just all over they place when ever they fell like it. It seems like something is sticking or the electric choke is kicking on and off. Do you think that it is the choke.
thanks alot
matt
