Bought sammy that was used primarly for climbing rocks the idle is way to high for what i plan to do with it. Anyone have a good diagram to show what idle adjustment screwsd do what?

thanks alot

hope this helps:



tighten to increase idle speed, loosen to decrease.

okay guys i tried to get her adjusted today and the idle screws do absolutly noting weahter backed in or out? It was the screws where the throttle cable is. Is there any other way to adjust the idle cause the screws are doing noting. thanks all help is apreciated

Is your throttle resting on the screw when at idle or is it held back by the throttle cable?

When you say it is idling to high, what is it idling at?  1500 or 2000?  1000?  600?

no its not resting on the screw at all not even close my idel at start up is around 1700 when warm its at 3000 and it surges also.

Sounds like your cable is short, to adjust it, look on the left side of the photo, there is a nut on both sides of the bracket, loosen the one on the back side, that will allow the cable to go forward. If that won't work, bend the bracket forward,this will allow your throttle stop to rest against your idle adjustment screw.
