I've picked through all of the carb adjustment threads I can find, and I see similar issues, but none exactly like what I have experienced. I went on my first longish ride yesterday (maybe 20 miles) and about half way through, whenever I stopped for a light the engine would race to the point where raw fuel was dripping out of the air filter. When I gave a little tug on the throttle cable, it would rev back down, and I could also slow it by opening the choke.
I have occasionally experienced this on shorter rides, particularly when it is very hot out, but it has been the exceptionn, not the rule.
Any advice or ideas? It just takes something away from the elan to stop for traffic and have the motor run wild.
