Cleaned Carbs - Can't Set Idle

[DaveP]

Did you make sure there is a tiny bit of slack in the choke cable before it starts to actuate?

I have fiddles with it. A little bit of slack is present. It may have been not tracking well in the grove where the cable is anchored. Re-positioned so that it tracks better and will see how it goes today.

I?d guess one or more of choke plungers ain?t fully retracting when you close choke cable..until you manually push on them. Sadly this is impossible to determine which one could be the culprit with carbs mounted. Any one plunger hanging slightly open will give you an erratic idle.

Definitely the chock plungers, but good to go now. Synched the carbs, put the tank back on, and out on the road for a 20 mile loop. Running well.

Thanks for the suggestions.
