OK-Spark plugs look good, did not do a compression test. I cleaned Carbs AGAIN, found gooey like substance in carbs and it dried like salt grainy chips. Started it up and idle just took off (REALLY HIGH IDLE) don't know what to do.<br /><br />Also, in the silencer, should there be an air filter. I also think I am missing a plug on the front of the silencer.<br /><br />Thanks for all your help so far!

Double check throttle linkage to carbs. By the way how fast is it idling?
