Choke Cable Adjustment
Verify free play of 1.6-4.76 mm (1/16-3/16”) and smooth
operation of choke cable.
Idle Speed Adjustment
1. Start engine and warm it up thoroughly.
2. Adjust idle speed by turning the slide adjustment screw in
(clockwise) to increase or out (counterclockwise) to decrease RPM.
(Refer to illustration).
Idle Speed
1400 ± 100 r.p.m.
NOTE: Adjusting the idle speed affects throttle
cable freeplay. Always check throttle cable freeplay
after adjusting idle speed and adjust if necessary.
Adjustments to the freeplay can be made by loosening the
choke cable adjustment in or out to gain the desired
freeplay.
If smooth choke operation is not obtainable, inspect choke
cable for kinks or sharp bends in routing.

leakage. Replace if necessary.
2. Be sure fuel lines are routed properly and secured with cable
ties.
Make sure all fuel lines and vent lines are not kinked or
pinched.
3. Replace all fuel lines every two years.
