Anyone know what would cause the hot idle to not drop to it's initial setting when the throttle is released (300 RPMs too high)? Blipping it always brings it back down, as does switching off the ignition and restarting. No amount of fiddling with any of the linkage lowers the idle, and the teapot was recently cleaned/rebuilt. Performance fine otherwise. Not a real problem, just curious.

Check that the little eccentric fast idle cam at bottom inner part of auto choke is free and lubricated so it can fall back when choke warms up, it then drops off the adjustment screw and idle normally returns back to normal.

Bill,



Pony tech made same suggestion. N/A, as "fiddling" included inuring the F.I. cam was free.
