Rev's up releasing the acc. knob
02/28/05 at 02:19:19

When I release the accelerator knob to go to the next speed, up or down, the revs of the engine are not going back to normal idle immediately. They stay up for a moment, let's say half a second.
I checked the wire and seems to be ok, even if I noticed, turning the front wheel to both sides a small revolutions difference. Could this problem be connected with the carburator ?? A filter ?? , a return spring?? Tx Augusto.

My first guess would be a problem with your throttle cable. It should not change the idle at all during full rotation of your steering column. The cable housing must be secured to the frame at some point along its route. The inner cable could be sticking inside the housing, make sure the housing interior is lubricated with a light oil or WD 40. Open and close the throttle while you check movement at the carb to see if you are getting full travel at the carb.

Make sure the cable is not in a bind, is routed correctly, and isn't sticking internally from a lack of lubrication.
