Cliff Ruggles:
Did you verify voltage to the choke?

Make sure that you didn't put a gasket under it, it needs to ground on the housing.

The secondary spring is easy to access with a tiny flat tip screwdriver.  You'll need to loosen the allen set screw under it to make adjustments......Cliff

BanditRich:
Cliff - where exactly on the carb is the secondary spring?

BanditRich:
OK I just watched a youtube video I know where it is. I thought I took the gasket out of the choke housing I will check next time I get under the hood & check the voltage if there isn't one in there.
I can't wait to adjust the secondary spring tension so my TA launches the way I know it should.

Kenth:
I would make sure the secondary throttle blade shaft lockout lever is removed from behind the choke.
If the choke gets cooled and not are fully open this will stop WOT maneuvers.

BanditRich:
^ I checked behind the choke there's no gasket. So I should get it working before I go adjusting the secondary air valve?
