Default Dies when I'm stopped

ok, my Polaris 325 Trial Boss just recently started "thowing a fit" about a week ago. Whenever I come to a stop and let go of the throttle it dies, My guess would be that the throttle cable needs adjusted but it only does it about 15 minutes after I start riding. Can anyone help me out?


Thanks,
Jeff

It sounds like something in the throttle body(area on the handle bars in the black box) remove the 3 screws and take off the cover and gasket, and see if the connection isn't being made in the box......if no connection, then your motor won't run. I hate that darn setup in that box.......has something to do with stopping throttle sticking.

on the right handle bar there should be cable that has rubber pieces that are black and if you spread those rubber pieces away from each other you should see like a piece that you twist and have the 4 wheeler running and twist 1 way and see if the engine is getting bigger rpms and have it in nuetral

I did that and it idled fine but I am worried that since it is loose now it might move around and re-adjust to idle higher and higher.... Has anyone else done this? Is it safe/recomended?
