Nope, richen the HSN a tadge, your leaning out the mill to much and there's not enough fuel to run it at the correct fuel/air mix when it returns to idle, as it sits there it's recovering but revs up till the balance is correct again. You may need to lean the LSN a bit after the HSN is fattened. You'll also notice this symptom is similar to running out of fuel, as in uncontrolable reving up, so there's a clue as to why it's happening.

Actually if your LSN is adjusted correctly, it will give you a high idle for 6-10 seconds then drop down to the low idle.


If the idle doesn't change while adjusting the Idle screw, it's an Air leak.

It should return to Idle the moment the throttle is closed otherwise they'd dart off every time you released the throttle. The air leak is a possibility. How old is the engine and what plug/fuel are you using?
