wtf revving like crazy

[Dan]

i got all new electrics. so i actually have spark now. and she can start on the first kick. i was driving it around the other day and it didnt really seem to have any power.

im in minnesota elevation is 1000 ft i believe. i have pro circuit platinum pipes and a k&n filter. i have 310 mains. after asking last year someone told me to go 310. think every other jet is stock. i will have to check.

the main problem is i go out today and start her up and im having the same problem i had last year. its revving like crazy with no throttle on and it doesnt look like the slides are stuck. what would cause all the fuel to get into the cylinders when its sitting. how can i check for air leaks? with starting fluid? or carb cleaner?

Check your throttle cable coming down to your carbs mine did that when that is pintch

I have used staring fluid.(don't recommend it) flip the peddle over and see if that stops it.
