on my 3.3 maxx I am having idle problems. It runs real good boath hot and cold but wont idle on its own. I have to use the trim on the controller to keep it idleing. I tried turning up the idle screw but still will not idle on its own without trim. is this an adjustment I need to do with the LPN ?? when adjusting the LPN should I back off the trim and idle screw before adjusting it ?

Ok I spent all afternoon tuning !! and I do mean ALL afternoon working on it. I tore the carb all apart cleaned it all put it all back together same problem. I re set my servo and linkages and still same problem. Finally I put the lsn and hsn back to stock then tuned the HSN first and than slowly turned the Low speed needle in 1/8 a turn at a time and over and over it would stall when idleing than Finally it started to work and keep an idle on its own with no trim not perfect still a bit rough but it dose stay idleing. So I decided to mark down where the needle was set before I tried more and I noticed the low speed needle was in all thay !!! if I oppen it more than 1/8 a turn it will not stay idleing !!! what ells can I try ??
