Cycle Worlds October Issue had an interesting question asked in the tech tip section...

Basically the question was after engine warm up period, the idle increases erratic/drastically...

The answer is WD-40... Hmmm, now where have I heard this before..... That's right boys & girls from good ole Plummen who has stated this numerous times...

Well here's a little more thorough explanation of what to do, what to look for and what the most likely cause is....

I just got my Oct CW today and have yet to open it. I guess I'll have to get used to the new binding style.
