My idle was high so I have it turned down now.
I forget what it should idle at, can someone remind me?
Thanks

if you open your hood, on the underside under the gauge cluster there are some decals with clutch info, one bit of info on there is what the idle should be

right around 1600 sounds about right.

I will look for the decal, I've been in there before though and don't remember seeing it.

I'm bouncing around between 1400 and 1700. I'll wait a couple of tanks of gas and tune it then. I'm still using up last years gas.

I just started a new thread asking how you can tell if both carbs are tuned the same. If you know the answer please go there and let me know.

Thanks
