First time I've had this problem. When coming to a stop it will die, or sometimes it will not idle down all the way, stay up around 2250, other times it idled normal. Give it a little throttle and it runs fine. Figured tps, or throttle safety switch, just not sure how to figure out witch. Thanks, Tim

try disconnecting the kill switch...the idle saftey on the throttle block goes bad and does this...for the meantime u can use the key to turn it off if this is the problem until u buy a new throttle block

Check your throttle cable, if that loooks good make sure the slack adjustment is good.
I had the same problems after the dealer worked on the sled.
They did a lousy job of routing cable. That was the last time I let a dealer touch the sled.


If thats not the problem you get to chase a gremlin.
