BlueX: A few days--week since last worked on this, been sitting, a travesty--but yesterday able to get (1) Started, easily, without throttle assistance; (2) Idling, although on forth start; (3) once idling, and warm (160-180 degrees), adjusted "Minimum Air Rate" adjustment screw, backed it out 1/10th at a time until 1/2 turn total and idle achieved down around 700-900 rpm (guess) in Park.
Although strong, fluctuating a bit (but not surging, as in faulty Fuel pump/sending unit) while idling high in Park sounds/feels smooth, strong and steady just exactly as brand new. Presence of foul, acrid smoke/exhaust engine compartment, a nasty, burned plastic/chemical/solvent smell, checked wiring harnesses, hoses and tubing, but nothing...
Still rough at higher (1500-2500) rpm's and definite feel like missing, especially while slowly throttling up, but absolutely refuses to rev... Shut it down for a few, inside smells foul, like same burning smell--although kinda sweet, without the choking smoke--inspected under dash, fuse panel, components, nothing...
Restart 30 minutes later; immediate start, revved-up, idled down, rough, but running, died in gear... Restart, died in gear... Third start held Brake/Throttle shifted into D with lurch--big power, like trying to ride a bull--100' brake, died...
Suggestions?
