1998 Kitty Cat wont idle.
I have played with some of the idle adjustment screws but cannot get my 1998 kitty cat to idle. It runs fine when throttle is applied. Any easy fixes or suggestions for this problem?
Thanks,
Thanks,

same problem
I have the same problem but my carb is spottless. Every orfice is clean but it only likes to idle at a higher rpm. As soon as i drop it a little it will stall as if it is running out of gas. Which is not the issue. The carb is set right and the float to factory specs

Re: same problem
Mine does the same exact thing. I just cleaned everything last week and put in fresh fuel, 87 from country fair about 3 days prior. Runs great at faster rpm, turn in the screw until it almost engages the clutch and it will idle, albeit extremely fast. Turn it out even 1/4 turn and it dies. Either way it runs fine as soon as you give it a bit of throttle. If you find anything out with yours please let me know.1232kb wrote:I have the same problem but my carb is spottless.
