08 sportsman touring hard to shift

rider2421 · #1 (**permalink**) 12-21-2009, 07:00 PM

Ok fellas i need some advice.I had a sputtering problem at first and i got that solved but running injector cleaner and 93 octane in it. Now i have a reverse effect. Now my idle speed is around 1600 rpms and it is getting hard to shift into gear sometimes cause of the idle speed. Would the T-Bap sensor cause the high idle speed or is there a way i can adjust the idle speed? If so where is it located?

Thanks for your help
Jon

There is an adjustment for the throttle cable, where the cable ends and turns into the handle under the rubber liner there is a cable adjustment that lets you adjust the rpm..one way will make it rev to high the other will make it sputter and run to low. I find around 1140-1180 works good for mine, my friends runs at 1200
