"Ok, Guys, I oiled all the linkage, and here is whats going on now, Engine starts slow, then goes up to a 1200-1500 idle. Checked the Safty switch, ok, It will go into foward, but it seems like it takes a while to back down, still a high rpm, When you put it in reverse, It dies. Played with the Idle screw, still doens't make a difference. I got most of the old gas out of it. I don't think that would make a difference. Used Carb cleaner, Carb. seems ok, any suggestions would help.

Thanks"
 
What sort of engine is it ?

What sort of engine is it ?
Does it have an idle solenoid attached to the throttle.
Is the fast idle linkage on the choke sticking.
