G'day again guys,
Thanks again for all the help and advise on this issue, I ended up changing the top and bottom seals and the decompressor valve to make sure there was no leak in these parts. I started it up and it was slightly a little slower in the idle. So there may have been a slight leak in one of these seals or the decompressor valve.
But the idle was still too high and I still could not bring it down slow enough like it used to be years ago. So I bought the brass washers from Bruce here at Outdoorking, chucked in 2 just like you mentioned. Put the carby back on tried to start it and it wouldn't kick over. That would have been because I still had the idle screw turned all the way out to the point where it was nearly falling off the housing.
Once I turned it back in to where it should roughly be I now have a fully adjustable idle again! It's awesome! I can tell you that those 2 washers installed in the carby definately fixed my idle problem!
It now has full adjustment right in and it can be brought to quite a fast idle, start to turn it out and you can actually go to far and stall the engine. Full manual adjustment! Very happy with the result!
Cheers and thankyou very much for all the help Grumpy and Mr Davis, you guys are great!
Cheers!
