Hi, I have a problem with the engine g260.I changed all the gaskets.The first problem was a oil leak in the cylinder Gasket.I solved it with Loctite quick Gasket .while I had the oil leak in the cylinder gasket ,engine is working normally.After i solved that problem, engine is not working well.When i start the engine,he goes into high RPM.I cant reduced by adjusting the carburetor.So something is wrong.I put new gaskets and manifold.everything is tightened properly.so I do not understand where is the air leak.

Thanks!
 
Are you sure that there is an air leak giving you the high rpm?
Is the throttle closing to rest / closed position, or is the throttle arm pulling it open slightly - just an adjustment on the servo required?
Just a thought.

If you still have high RPM idle you may still have an air leak. try buy spraying something around the head when running and see if the idle becomes erratic. I would recommend just buying a new head gasket and changing it out. You can buy a complete gasket set from DDM to do the gasket changing. You may have had a loose head bolt which allowed the leak. Once the oil saturates the gasket it will be hard to get it to reseal properly again.
Get us an update on your findings.
 
A little late with the reply:D.Problem was the damaged throttle arm.There was a air leak.I replaced it and now the engine is running perfectly:w00t:
 
Stegy. pay attention to your brake EPA settings. if you go to far on it, you ll end up pulling the throtle shaft against the carb body, and cause premature wear of the shaft.

once your brake linkage phyically stops moving, the servo is then pulling on the throtle shaft. Well in the Baja set up it does...
