high idle when clutch in

[akaguppy]

well i was close to getting the jetting dialed in perfect when my bike started acting up. it idles up real high when you pull the clutch or shift to neutral. it did this a month or so ago and then disappeared and now it is coming back.

things i have tried in past and today

moving the throttle cable around
change gas
moving idle screw

i got it to idle fine by blooping the throttle a few times and was able to get back to the shop and it started to do it again. any ideas if i get time tomorrow i want to go through the bike maybe torn intake boot? i would like to have a lot of ideas to go throw if yall are able to help.

I think ripped boot will make it stall not rev. More air not gas. Maybe your throttle cable needs lubed. Blipping made it quit. Maybe it got stuck?

mine does the same my choke has to be out all time to make it from idle real high

i was thinking boot just to throw out ideas that crossed my head i will spray the cable tomorrow. i want to say it is a fairly new cable less then 6 months old

What jets are you running now?

 

[akaguppy]

i cant remember which pilot you are running and i went way down and then up at 157 if i remember right and i think i have to go up just one more or mess with the needle. i ll be happy when the jetting is done lol

Just don't over think it and you'll do fine. If you have to, talk to Weston about it. He has more experiance, and is his own boss. He won't get yelled at like I will.

And, check to make sure that your crankcase breather isn't pinched from that cap you have on it. If it is, the crankcase gases cannot escape, and it can make the engine smoke.

In going to suggest a good carb cleaning, then when you think it's good and clean, clean it again, it takes a lil bit of nothing to piss these things off.

cleaned it three times before putting it back on and now it is idling constantly high also the throttle cable was taken of and was free but still cleaned it

it is almost as if the slide wont go down all the way

tried this and the idle went up


any ideas as to what it could be

 

[akaguppy]

bump for ideas

I still think the choke is stuck internaly.

Take the black linkage cover off the carb and make sure that the idle adjuster screw is touching it when it is idling. If it is not, and it idles high, the cable could be too short or routed in such a way, that it is keeping the throttle plate open. Hell, take the cable off the linkage and see how it idles.

 

[Gen1Pat]

Another thing, spray some carb cleaner on the joint where the carb and intake manifold come together, and where the head and manifold meet. Just spray lightly. Brake clean works too. If the idle changes at all, that is where your problem it.
