Thanks!

Sure. I think. My camera's battery is flat. I'll try and get it sorted in a day or two. Have put it on charge.

Lol, sorry I am still a newbie with the Gas Gas 4t's :P. Thanks again for Pics!

I just adjust it to give the fastest idle, that seems to also provide the best starting.

Yeah gotcha. So which way looking straight at it, did you turn the air bleed screw to get faster idle?

Thanks,

I have no idea now! It would depend on the specific bike anyway. It'll change with a big temp difference as well so you may find you need to adjust between winter and summer. Just try it both ways until you get the fastest, most even idle. There'll be a range of about 1/4 - 1/2 a turn where it is good but doesn't change much. Set it in the middle of that.

My screw was like, all the way in. Once I turned it left to loosen out a bit, I was FINALLY able to start it and it idled fairly well! I was able to turn off and start up again pretty easy too. The only thing I noticed was my bike would start to die down in idle speed, before it would just shut off. It's like once the engine is warmed up, the idle speed drops until the bike kicks off and could be anywhere from 30 seconds to 3 minutes.

Do you think it has something to do with air bleed screw once the bike is warmed up and hot? Maybe some other issue causing that?

Thanks for all your help!
