    Hot Idle Problem?

    I am having a problem with My Trail Boss 250. It runs and starts fine when cold. When hot, it starts fine also, but will die if I let it go to idle. It idles fine cold. Is this just a hot idle problem or is there something more? I plan on checking compression this weekend. Thanks!

    How about setting your idle and air/fuel mixture?? and cleaning your air filter and changing your plug.
