First, and most obvious I guess, is to check the throttle linkage to see if it is binding somewhere, or maybe worn bushes. Second, check if there is any air leakage into the inlet manifold engine side of the carburetter - that could cause a rise in idling revs. [/quote]    Insert an Image File Check here to include your profile signature.
