Default mt2 high idle problem

Just started the car. its run for about 3 minutes total. The problem is that when I start it it seems to idle pretty low but when I lift it off the ground the tires start spinning like crazy. could it be the slipper clutch? thanks for all your help

Sounds like both the slipper clutch and maybe the low speed needle needs to be adjusted. Check pg 11 of your manual to adjust the clutch and then reset your lsn to factory specs (page 10) to rule out a lean lsn setting.

It is normal for the tyres to spin when you lift it off the ground. Just leave it as it is.

yeah, but if I let it go on the ground it will start moving about 10 miles an hour. it doesn't just sit and idle.

If the truck is not trying to move when on the ground then I would think the clutch is OK and the slipper should not have anything to do with your problem. As far as idling try to idle it up and many be need to adjust the LSN.
