Default Problem After Installing 366 Spring

Installed it last night in the dark. Go figure are shop was full of cars so i worked in the parking lot. It took 2 hours most of it fighting the idle screw and the two rear allen heads. Didnt have a ball swivel allen. So all went back together OK so it seems. I left the idle screw out. Truck runs smoother obviously. No leaks that I can c. So it shut off fine by the key for about 2 hours of errand running last night. Now you turn the key off and the engine slows down but keeps running until I stall it w the clutch. Any ideas. Thinking it could be in the linkage but I put it back where it was. I used a center punch off a groove in the linkage to mark the shaft.

what about your fuel solenoid sometimes when you mess with the fuel your solenoid will messup check it out and see if your missing pieces of rubber off the tip

I would think shut off solenoid, Maybe the wire got knocked loose and is not making a good connection.

Yeah did it again last night even worse. Standing there looking at how I was going to shut it off when it was at full idle. Good thing its a clutch so I stalled it out. Played with the wires on the solenoid and they seemed good. Maybe the solenoid is going bad.

use the lever on the side of the pump to shut it down in that situation. much easier on everything.
