somthing strange happened today while running my storm buggy. it was running fine and temps were good. but when i would come to a stop it would take a few seconds for the engine idle to slow down. other then that it ran great so i just left it alone. although i'm a little curious what could cause this . thanx.[8D]

I think the high speed/low speed needles are out af adjustment. Possibly the main needle is a tad lean, whilst the low speed needle is set correctly or is slightly rich.
Or... it could be a simple throttle linkage problem, which does not allow the carb to close fast enough once you come off the gas. I'd check that also (you should be able to do that w/out the engine running).

i know my throttle linkage is right. i just checked all my linkages last night. it was probably a needle adjustmant. it ran so good at a good temp. it was probably my lsn. i'll tweek it tomorrow when i run it. thanx for the help.
