All it took was some experimentation with the degree of counterclockwise rotation of the resoldered throttle switch. I finally got it right by rotating the loosened switch full clockwise with the engine running, and then turning it counterclockwise until the microswitch clicked and the idle slowed down. Went right down to 750! Thanks Kneale Brownson. Thanks Scott Mockry. Echoing Scott's website admonition: Everyone with a 5k that has the original throttle switch would probably greatly benefit from either replacing the switch with the updated model, or at least resoldering the internal connections. Doyt Echelberger 87 5kcstq, much peppier now
