I am still having my idle isue. The guy I talked to said it sounds like I still have an air leak somewhere. Could the air leak be in my OWB. The reason I think this is because every time I take the motor apart (looking for a leak) then reassemble it. It seems to run not bad then goes into its high idle and dies. Then the second time I start it the OWB slips madly. I am so confused please help. One more Queation. I am thinking of getting a Rock Crawler, which one would be the best one to buy. (not to concerned about money Iam going to use my wifes money Ha Ha)
 
Dont know what to tell you about the leak, but if you post your crawler question in the crawler section, it will get answered.
 
When you take it apart, do you clean the one way bearing and the shaft with denatured alcohol?
When you reassemble it, do you seal the backplate with silicone?
 
I have sealed everything humanly possible and seems to run great. I had an air leak in my fuel line. I forget who told me to try the line but who ever you are thank you. Another problem I had was a throttle adjustment. I didn't even clue in that when I took my carb off I disconected my throttle linkage and changed its setting. Anyways I am pulling out the Rookie card on that one.
