Video of my Blaster idling kinda funny...

[Chuckthizzle]

So I took her on a quick spin opened her up nice in wide Then I parked her threw it in neutral and it started idling kinda weird. Is this normal? Its a 2006 I cleaned carb 1 week ago, new plug, new exhaust gasket, idle screw is about 1.5-2.5 turns out. After jumping back on it for a while it was idling fine.

And here is the before video of the cold start, I let her warm up for 5 mins. She ran great I got her up to 46mph. WHich is pretty fast for my 1st time

Float level must be between 20 - 21.5 mm

Idle adjusting.

Start with air screw 1.5 turns out.

Set idle screw so that it has some sort of idle. With TORS it is the big screw under seat on top of unit. With no TORS is is the brass screw midway down carb body.

Warm up motor and then set idle screw for a faster idle, 2000rpm+

Adjust air screw either way to get the fastest idle.

Adjust air screw a little at a time leaving 10 secs or until the motor to responds.

Re adjust idle screw for desired idle .

OK, someone told me to leave the tors adjusting to set on a low to normal idle, but your saying crank it up until the idle is high?? Whats the diff between letting it idle low and idle high.

The carby slide has to be lifted to be able to set the idle correcty to let the needle have a little say in the correct AFR.

They speak with forked tongue, I have been doing it the way I explained for over 55 years and it has always worked for me.

The manual explains it.
