Your slide is in the correct way. The half-moon cutout should be facing the filter as you have it. However, the slide is way too high.
The throttle stop screw looks as is it is in much too far. Back it all the way out and see if the throttle slide drops all the way down. If not, something else is causing it to hang up - check the cable. If its not the cable could the needle be the wrong one and too thick/long for the main jet?

finally figured it out! ok so after all the advice the slide needle was definitely not going deep enough into the jet because I tried starting it with just the slide and needle without being attached to the spring and throttle and it idled perfectly! So I realized that the throttle cable is not long enough at idle for the needle to go all the way through. However I never played with the throttle adjustment so I don't know why it's not out as far.

Re: High idle after rebuild
I have an 86 spree that idles very high and sometimes it will idle even idle high and then shut off. Adjusting the screws doesn't seem to help and we made sure the throttle valve needle was in their correctly but nothing seems to help. What could be the problem?
Re: High idle after rebuild
Throttle cable is bad and hanging up.

Re: High idle after rebuild
The cable has plenty of slack, I made sure the needle was all the way in. Still idling high...
Re: High idle after rebuild
It is not about slack. It is about the inner cable hanging up and not moving as far as it is suppose to inside the outer cable.niftyfifty86 wrote:The cable has plenty of slack, I made sure the needle was all the way in. Still idling high...
