Default 600 fs2 idling problem


I have just done a minor service- plugs, filters, oil on my FS2.

On the startup it was reving high 4000rpm. I wasn't too concerned for it was cold, but when it reached 50 degrees and still kept on reving high i knew there was a problem.

I removed the air box again to see if I could spot a problem. Not to my untrained eye.

Does anybody have an idea what could have happened and why it keeps reving at 4000rpm.

Please advise,

Thanks

Have you checked the idle adjuster screw located right behind the fuel switch? Did this just start after you did the maintenance? Seems odd that the work you did would have caused the symptoms you described.

its reving without the choke? I had some problems with my throttle cable, but my rpms went down. i would say check either the throttle or the choke cable.

Thanks for the replies, found the problem. It was a faulty thermostat in the radiator. No biggy.

Cheers anyway,
