Notes
Possibility engines with carter 4- barrel carburetors contain inadequate carburetor fast idle cams.prolonged usage, aggravated by engine backfiring, may result in failure of secondary lockout finger.this would reduce engine perfor- mance by keeping secondary throttle shut and could result in an open throttle condition where in engine would not return to idle.(correct by installing new designed fast idle cam.)
