Postby ellis93 » Mon Feb 20, 2012 4:42 pm

On the throttle lever,how many notches does it usually take to reindex it?

On mine, none. The 4200 spring is where you have to mess with that

Don't get all excited after only 1 answer....... :mrgreen: I had to move mine 1 notch, and IIRC quite a few others have too. It wouldn't idle unless I gave it some pedal, so I moved the lever clockwise 1 notch.

I couldn't get mine to idle right after putting the spring in, with the idle screw backed as far out as I could get it, it would still idle @ 1000rpm's. No biggie, clocked it and its just fine ;)

Trial and error. Put your spring in and go from there, adjust as necessary.

I think that I carefully marked and reassembled the throttle lever. I remember all the stickys on the subject made it sound like the end of the world if it was indexed wrong. It's very possible that I put it together wrong :lol:

Yes. And make sure the lever on the throttle shaft goes towards the engine when you install it. If it's backwards it idles down when you step on it. :lol:

Got the spring in, nothing to it at all. My throttle wound up in the same spot as it was with the OE spring.
