What needs to be adjusted or looked at on the carbs to fix this problem? Idle mixture screws are all set at 1 1/2 turns out. Any input appreciated.


600? What's your idle rpm? 600-750 is in the good range. Did you open up the throttle blade past the slot? Could be way past and using the main circuit instead of the idle. Are the back ones shut tight?
