Re: Slow to come down to idle when warm / hot

For the first part, slow to come down, adjust the idle speed. It does not seem to be because of idle speed but it does for me. Setting the perfect idle speed is tricky. The idle knob is on the right side. For the second part, hard to get in firts gear. Check you engine oil level and change if old and also gear lever is connected with a rod to the body and there is a nut (screw) that holds the rod to that part that is going in gear box, if that nut is loose you can have some issues. In my case that nut was loose and there was a play in that rod.
