  • Idle RPM is HIGH!!

    I finally got my new SBT motor to start up and idle. but the only problem i am having is that it idles around 3500-4000 rpms. i have played with the screw on the carbs to control the idle but no luck. and when i give it gas the rpms get stuck around at 6000 rpms. any idea on what could have gone wrong?

    Your high screws should be at 0 turns, lows out 1 1/4. Where are yours set?

      air leak , make sure you have carb gaskets on . have you cleaned the carbs ? . and are you sure no linkages are mixed up . theres 2 spots on the carb you could put the throttle cable make sure the barrel is in the right hole { one hole is for the oil line that you do not have on your ski }

          Why do you have that feeling exactly? If you have the wrong parts, no adjustment will amke it better.

            Make sure you have some slack in the throttle cable.
