    Throttle return spring

    Double checked and im sure its on run. I have the default air filter laying around so i made sure. When the plastic arm attached to the butterfly hits the idle screw (wether its screwed fully in our slightly out) it dies. Thats whats making me question the quality of the carb. Unless im wrong...

    Throttle return spring

    Okay i did more investigating. So like you said i looked down the shaft and yes the butterlfy (the actual butterfly) is opening and closing. I even turned the engine on and checked. On choke/run when the butterfly is closed completely the engine wont turn on/dies. This is normal? I noticed that...

    Throttle return spring

    I got the smaller spring and replaced it. Also added a new one to the arm that connects to carb butterfly to make sure it always shuts. But im starting to think i just have a faulty carb or something. Its a brand new engine but now it wont even idle off choke. Theres no way the carb is dirty or...

    Throttle return spring

    i added the spring. I noticed that the butterfly returns more but not completely, leaving the engine still revving. If i manually push the butterfly to complete idle (either on choke or off) the engine just stops running and turns off. Second photo is where I manually push the butterfly to, so...

    Throttle return spring

    FYI i got a minibike but i added the spring anyways. I noticed that the butterfly returns more but not completely, leaving the engine still revving. If i manually push the butterfly to idle (while off choke) the engine just stops running and turns off. Second photo is where I manually push the...

    Throttle return spring

    The butterfly is what i’ve been calling the carburetor arm right? That plastic part on the carburetor that moves when you engage the throttle? Also yes i lossened the nut so it springs back nicely but i can tell that it could use another spring, like you said. If i get to it today, i will update...

    Throttle return spring

    Okay thanks for your help. I’ll go to homedepot or some other hardware store and look for springs. I’ll re-watch the videos to see where they attach em too. Still strange to me that the spring i mentioned only works when the engine is on. But i guess if it works then it works lol

    Throttle return spring

    Someone mentioned that the spring i mentioned only keeps the rod to the butterfly secure. They also mentioned that i should add a new robust spring to ensure the throttle returns. So fsr it does, but with a new added return spring will it ensure that my carburetor arm will return to neutral...

    Throttle return spring

First photo is its neutral postion, second photo is of the return spring, third photo is off the carburetor arm after i’ve...

    Throttle return spring

    No. Since its a tillotson and i followed gopowersports tutorial video i didnt change the flywheel. Im aware that on predators its smart to change to billet flywheel so it doesn’t explode on you. I’ve seen video where people drill new holes and add springs to their throttle setup. Is that what...

    Throttle return spring

    Okay so return spring seems to be engaging when engine is on. However i do have skme concerns. Once off choke the engine will rev up every now and then by itself. And its very violent. Is this all normal?
