Default 3W 75 Idle?

I have a 3W 75 rear induction motor that has less than a gallon of fuel through it.
The problem is it takes a good while for it to idle down after throttling back for landing.
It reminds me of the way the YS motors would stay at a high idle and then gradually idle down.
Any solutions to this problem?

Default Question?

I did richen the low end up and it still will not idle down until after it lands. Don't have this problem on the ground running the engine up. Is it possible that while flying that air pressure is building up in the fuse causing ram air since this 75 is the rear induction? It's the only possible conclusion that I can think of.
Any thoughts on this?
Thanks,
Carroll
