You want the motor to idle with the gas pedal released ? If you have a regular set up the cart will automatically shut off otherwise.

I did what the set up said.I unhooked the black wire and when I hit the gas pedal it was idling so high that the key would not shut it off.Where is the idle screw on that carb.I think if I turn that down a little it might work

It can be adjusted to idle,,,,,,,,,,,,, But why ? I fail to see the point ? You will be running to the point of the cart taking off on it's own. Is this some dumbass California thing ?

It will still "buck" even when idling... it's the nature of the beast with some carts.

I explained why I wanted my cart to idle Chris... others may have different reasons. "To each, their own"

You were just a little harsh there my friend!
