Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): idle speed on Honda HRC 216, honda hrc, adjustment screw


Question
I have noticed that the idle speed was a bit slow now it will barely run.  How do I speed it up.   thanks          jon

Answer
 Hello Jon

 If you look on the Left side of the Carb, you should see the Idle Adjustment Screw with the Engine Running Adjust the Idle. If you see more than one then Start with the one Towards the Front of the Engine and turn Clockwise if nothing happens then Stop and Return it to the Original Setting.  Go to the next Screw it will be the one you are looking for. A Screw Driver may be Required to make the Adjustment.

 Good Luck

 Respectfully
