Default throttle servo linkage?

hey im not really sure about this...i just got a new RB 523 and installed it and i think i have it set up right...when i open at full throttle should the slide part of the carb not be visible at all? because it opens about 85% of the way and i cant get it to open any farthur. also sometimes i open it and let it back to idle and the carb sticks...is this just because there isnt any fuel in it yet to lube it up?

thanks

The slide should open all the way. Put a little after run oil on it and work it back and forth.

It might need to be adjusted also.

Haha, I had the same problem for about a week with my Picco.


Ok, it could be your carb. Adjust your carb at an angle where you can get a free non sticking WOT action. Once that is set, make sure the linkage will work as well. I don't own a RB so I don't know exactly how it would go, any pics?

Or you could probably use this, i know it works wonderful on the 3.3. It easily fully opens the carb with tons of adjustment to make it open much farther if needed... Its a really nice setup!
