i had the same problem with 25 engine, i just removed the springs attached to the carb i.e. the one found outside, and voila my carb now fully opens.:cool:
 
If you can, check the EPA adjustment on the radio. If that doesn't do it, make sure the linkage just barely allows the carb to close all the way to idle when the throttle is released.

how can you do the EPA adjustment?

Indusinativictus if i take off my return spring my idle starts to raise, so i kept it on, did that happen to yours?

Is it passable to adjust the throttle linkage if so how can adjust it?
 
I've fixed my carb i just need to adjust my throttle arm a bit, just need to try it out now.
cheers people :)
