remove set screw. spray your favorite penetrating lube. grab the end of motor shaft with a good pair of vice grips. holding the vice grips, grab around the outside edge of fan and gently start to try and twist it back and forth and pushing towards the motor. it should start to move and once...

this is what i have.

the caps on the idle mixture screws are already removed. what are the nylon bushings you mentioned?

anyone have a source for a bushing kit for the 2300 series carbs? have what i consider to be too much movement on the throttle shaft. trying to fix idle problems.

i found this post somewhere and it explained the exact problem i was experiencing. might be your situation. i also changed voltage reg but ended up changing alternator to solve problem. see if your parts store can test your alternator. "It is possible that you have an open diode in the 3...

with my road runner, i gently used a heat gun to soften the glue holding the glass. once the glass is removed, i was then able to tighten the spring clip that holds tension on the pivot. resoften the glue with heat gun and install. be great for over 15 years.
