Trying to get my sons' go kart up and running. I don't have much experience with these karts, so bear with me. With help from the kart section on this forum, I was able to replace the clutch assembly. But now the issue is that the engine just won't settle down to a good idle. It's revving hard at all times. I can't get it to slow down. I'm not letting my kids ride it so that I don't burn up the new clutch...and for their safety of course.
I have the air cleaner assembly off and took these pictures. I've figured out what controls the idle speed (at least I think...) but can't figure out how to adjust it. Here are a few pictures. In this picture, the small metal rod in the middle with the black plastic on one end and the "c" shaped metal on the other moves. If I rotate it so that the screw sticking out of the metal "c" rotates counterclokewise, the idle settles down.
This picture is the far end of the assembly (if I follow the black plastic piece and the connections). The backwards "C" is where this connects. When I move the rod on top to slow the idle, this "C" moved down slightly.
How do I adjust this so the idle stays slow? Thanks for any help!
