I have a 05 TLD that needs to be pull started and even when the enigine is good and warm it wont idle at all...The kill switch I installed is not connected and neither is the jumper and yet it CAN be pull started and runs fine when any kind of revs are put to it. When the motor tries and returns to idle it dies.

Its got the three major componets of a running engine..gas ..spark..timing..any thoughts as to where my gremlins are comming from?

 

Check your throttle free play. Your ETC adjustment if off will make it stall at idle.

 

If your valves are tight it will be hard to start and it will not idle.

 

Thats just what it was..the ETC was out of wack...any suggestion on how to disable it. I figured I would ask here before I go ripping stuff that I need to..I'm good at doing that. I'm guessing alls I need to do is is unplug the two wires under the throttle cable? Thanks!
