A Special Note about Email accounts!
DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

A note to old forum members...
I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...
Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Original problem was that it started and ran and installed when shifted into gear brought it home checked everything out pull the carbs clean the carbs inside and out put it back on and the idle was high. Check the slack in the throttle cable and took the throttle cable completely off the idle went down but then it chugged installed. Took the carb apart again and did a more thorough cleaning pulled diaphragm slides needles pilot jet everything I could think of the carbs spotless. We did the airbox check the throttle cable we ran it so it was no problem with the cable put it all back together and it still idles at 5 grand. Also check the sync bench check that and it seems fine.

So are you saying disconnecting the throttle cable reduced the idle to normal speed? Could you elaborate a little?
