Hi Az
The first thing I would check is the low idle screw on the carburetor. Manually push the governor arm away from the governor spring and see what the engine low idle is set at. I forget the exact specs, but I think it's around 2,000 rpm. Once you've set the low idle screw, see what the idle down solenoid does. If memory serves me correctly, it should pull the governor arm so the throttle shaft is against the low idle stop screw on the carburetor. Let us know what you find,
