    Have you cleaned the carb? Clean air filter? Plug? Could also be an air leak.

    Probably not. Clean that sucker out and don't forget the jets.

    I took off the carb and put my 82 200e carb on it, it does not idle as high still working on it. I took a closer look at the carb and throttle cable and lever and all of it is exactly like my 84 200x one thing i noticed is that the cable did not let the throttle valve go down as far as the 200e cable

    are you sure youve installed the slide properly? also try to sparay carb cleaner on the intake while its running if it idles higher then you have a cracked intake
