Idling High

Featured Replies

hi a few days ago i put a rebuilt carb on my 3k but now it idles high and there dosent seem to be any leaks or anything... help anyone? ;)

Yea i had the screw pretty much the whole way out still high and the choke is fully open

Winding the mixture screw out would increase revs. Are you sure you're playing with the mixture screw and not the idle stop ?

Base setting for the idle screw should be 1.5-3 turns out from seated. Ignition timing will also affect idle speed.

Why did you rebuild the carb, what were the symptoms before ?

i was told that it is opposite on aisan carbs and not quite sure :/ haha , and the timing seems fine , the plunger wasent working and and it was dying and shit

Timing seems fine ? or is fine ?

If winding the mixture screw in/out makes no (or very little) difference to the idle speed, I'd suspect a leak or an assembly fault, particular if the engine falters once the load comes on.
