hatchsub Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Somewhere along the line i lost my high idle with the choke. Ive looked and the choke plates are closing. What else should i look at? I rejetted it but that shouldnt affect the choke i wouldnt think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 There is a high-idle cam on the linkage side that operates in conjunction with the choke - when the choke is on there is a cam with three steps in it that a linkage peice contacts with an adjustable screw - that sets the high idle speed by forcing the throttle open when the choke is engaged. Verify that when the choke is closed the throttle is slightly open (the idle speed screw is not touching it's stop). GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatchsub Posted August 19, 2010 Author Share Posted August 19, 2010 Well this morning it worked. I pumped the gas two extra times (so 4 in total) and got the high idle to kick on. I will have to look at the mechanism though. It might just be gummed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Likely just needs some lube - I agree. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
