Throttle has to much free play

[Honda256]

My throttle has free play in it,and i was wondering how to adjust it to make it have not as much free play in it. In my manual it says there an adjuster and it you turn it it will decrease the play or increase the free play. The thing is it wont move it at all,i need help????? Thanks in advance

What kind of bike ? Most ajust at top of carb were cable meats carb. under the rubber water seal is a threded tube an nut , you back it out to remove the slack from cable then lock the nut down. I think there may be a ajustment under the water seal at the throughtal on handle bar too.

Hold the adjuster nut while turning the lock nut next to the throttle. Then turn the adjuster to change free play.;)

After you get it adjusted, look into the carb with the throttle held wide open to be sure the slide is opening all the way. You may not be getting all your machine has to give.

I dont know your specific machine but id assume they are all the same. take off your throttle cover, and there will be nut in there (you might wanna grease it up in there too), free play on a throttle would be going towards the left, so lighty (barely without activating the carb) put the throttle in place and tighten the scew. You need abou 1/2 centimenter of free play in it.

Good luck,
