    Erratic behaviour

    I just verified that my 98 GTX limited (951) LSA's are set at 1 1/4 turns. My mag side HSA at 0, and my PTO HSA at 1/4. On idle , it is very erratic and will idle at 1100 and then jump up to 2000 for a second then back down to 1100 and continue that pattern during idle and sometimes stall...

    Oil injection cable

    Here's the scoop. I cleaned my Carbs and changed all my old gray fuel lines, just put everything back together. I noticed that on the carbs, there is a small wheel what the throttle cable attaches to as well as the oil injection cable (i think) attaches to the same wheel. For some...
