captainhowdie Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 I was told that you didnt need to install the idle screw. Is it really needed? or was i misinformed? Quote
Powerstroke Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 Not sure how you will get it to idle with out em. Maybe take all the slack out of the cable? Not how I would do it. Quote
redwings Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 You Dont have to....But thats what there for. You might as well do it right the first time :biggrin: Quote
regalrocket Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 I have the screws sitting in my parts box, havn't used them yet. I routed my cable so that just adjusting the cable works just fine, and the idle doesn't change as you turn the handle bars. I had a set of carbs that had the screws in, and they didn;t shave the bosses, causing the bosses to strip from over tightning the screws trying to get idle up. When I replace the carbs, I decided to try it without the screws, seems to work fine. My triple cylinder sled doesn't use screws, uses cable tension, figured if it worked there, it will work here too. Quote
