nirvanafan98:
Why does my 500 run wide open when you start it up instead of idle ? HAVE REPLACED THROTTLE CABLE, CHECKED EVERYTHING , DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO CHECK.

kkvslayer:
could be a air leak somewhere or your carb is plugged up or has stuck floats ,Could be your mag side crankseal,base gasket,cracked intake boot or gasket,Eliminate one thing at a time

nirvanafan98:
Thanks for the help.I knew it had to be something simple. the local shop told me to adjust the idle screw.

Ims Roll:
this may sound stupid and simple but check your idle screw, some of them vibrate themselfs all the way in.
