Re: [DML] new cat & higher idle

["DMC Joe" <dmcjoe@xxxx>]

The first item to check is to determine if the accelerator linkage is
sticking. Conduct the following test: While the engine is idling at the
higher RPM's push the accelerator linkage arm that contains the two stop
screws towards the stop plate.

If the idle drops to normal check to insure that the accelerator cable outer
jacket is not hung up where it enters the throttle abutment (parts manual
fig 16).
