Don't mess with the thrott. cam!!!! it will be out of sync for the rest of the motion it goes thru.<br />You adjust Idle speed with the Idle timing screw, then re-adjust CABLES as needed for proper travel.

Where would I find the idle timing screw? Thanks for the reply, I am trying to get this things going to fish with. I have a manual on order that I am sure will help.<br /><br />thanks
