My 86 "X" would either idle way high or not at all. I went through the usual suspects to try and get it to idle to no avail. Seems every time I would ge the idle where I wanted it the settings would change when I worked the throttle. I thought that maybe it had trash on the slide or the spring was weak. When I pulled the slide out I found the culprit. Seems that after 22 years of service the "ramp" on the slide where the idle screw sits had a "divit" in it. With a lil bit of emery cloth, I smoothed out the divit and now she idle like a champ. Anyone else experience this?
