Throttle video

[CaptainLunatik]

Having issues with my throttle at idel it decides when it wants to speed up and slow down all on it's own I barely have any control over it. Here's a video anyways so it revs up and down on it's own when it's on an up rev I have to gun it to get it to chill out momentarily. I'm stumped any ideas

Ugh I can't get the video to upload

Is the throttle cable binding at all? A sharp turn/bend might do it. Is the spring on the carb pulling the cable back down to idle when you release the throttle? Some of those cheap throttle grips have a lot of resistance built into them...………...dunno it should snap to idle in just a second. Look at it see wassup. Air leak if the carb bolts are loose might do it. Is the cable too short for your application?

Disconnect your throttle cable and see if it still does it. I'm thinking Darwin called it with the air leak.

Ok I'll give it a looksy well you see it's kinda weird my throttle if mounted on the motor backwards if that makes sense to you at all well here I'll try to take a pic....... There that should clear up any confusion s**t what I mean backwards.... But I still don't see a bind anywhere and it's not just doing it when I'm turning it does it even if b I'm going in a straight line .

I'll check for leaks now and let you know my results
