Im no carby guy, but if u put through boiling water, and it idles fine, isnt that just cos the choke turned off???:confused:

I think u still gotta adjust that

[EGchick]

Yes but WHY isnt the water in the engine turning the choke off when its hot???

I thought the problem was its idleing to high at start up. Not that the choke would turn off
