  • Super chief high idle

    I just got the engine back together, new points, condenser's, fan belt, fan bearings, plugs and a carb cleaning along with fuel tank flush, new fuel filter and lines. Starts up, runs good but the idle seems to go up. The idle screw is all the way out and the idle seems quiet high. I cant get the idle down to a normal idle. Any ideas? I cant find a vacuum leak of any kind.

      If it has a Mikuni, is the slide going all the way down?

      My new beer holder spilled some on the trails - in it's hair and down it's throat.
      Joe Camel never does that.

      Advice is free, it's the application that costs.

        check for vacume leak at crank seals. you can spray carb cleaner around them to test for leaks
        hope this helps

          ok, got it. The slide on the carb wasn't going down all the way. Simple adjustment and now she idles fine. Thanks
