    You really need to set the fast idle adjustment when cold. If you move the fast idle cam when it's hot the choke is going to close and it will most likely stall out. You should see a mark on the correct step of the cam. Sometimes it has an arrow and sometimes a circle. Either way it's usually the second step from the top. I would start by having the choke open 1/8" when cold. You can use a 1/8" drill bit. If you get hesitation then close it slightly. Normally hesitation is due to it being opened too much.

      Hi John:
