I have had this motor since new and it has given me good service, but it will die if I twist the throttle handle too far towards slow. It has been like this for a long time and I accepted it for normal until I recently operated a friends motor like mine that would idle even though it contacted a stop in the slow position. I looked under the cover/shroud and didn't see how to change this setting. Thanks for any help.

Best regards,

I believe the adjustment you are looking for is under the cowel, on the port side of the engine and it prevents a bar from coming back too far... play around with the throttle for a minute and convince yourself it's the right srew.

Good luck
