Hey,

I've a question, recently i turned on my WF engine, but i feel the min. RPMS too high, normally is between 1500-2500 rpm's but now are up to 4000 rpm.

How i can adjust the RPM in the World Formula Engine???

Thanks

PD: Sorry for my english.

The ideal is adjusted with the ideal mixture screw on the side of the carburetor. I would recommend downloading the carb manual from the link below it tells you all you need to know for getting started in tuning it.

Check your throttle cable,very common to step on the cable getting out of the kart pulling it out of the cable end. This will cause the cable to be pulled open raising your idle speed.

I'm not the best at explaining things but just make sure that there is a hint of slack in the cable when the pedal is completely released. If the cable is tight chech along the run of the cable to see if there is anytjing out of the norm. It should be obvious,it may help to have someone with some experience show you.

Take the air filter off and make sure that the slide is seated all the way down. If it is a stuck throttle the slide would be about 1/3 way open to rev to 4000 RPM.
