in need of picture of idle screew

Post by deboutdors »

I live in Texas USA. and I am in need of some help. I had my Dexta put in the shop to replace the clutch and it came back with to high of an idle. I need to know where I can find it so that i can adjust it myself. Also my lift is very weak and wont stay up it always drifts down. I have read about the worm pin just not sure if that will fix it. Thanks Debbie

Debbie,
The idle screw is the one to the right of the red arrow (which indicates the throttle linkage) in the pic below:

If you set the throttle in the fully closed position, you will see that the throttle arm (attached to the throttle butterfly axle) is touching the idle stop - as it is in the pic. :wink:
