make sure that carb boot is over the metal part and sitting inside the groove so that its not sliding off. Also dis/con the servo and open and close the carb while the engine is mounted, only pull in the direction where the servo would pull and make sure nothing is sticking or binding especially when you close the carb. If everything is ok there then you could be a qtr turn too lean on your hsn
