Re: High idle...

Lots of people here in the States do things to their carburetors to make them run richer - rejet, shim the jets, and other mods that I don't pretend to understand. I've never been tempted to do this, for the simple reason that the leaner it runs, the less gas it uses. As long as it doesn't start knocking or running so hot as to do damage (unlikely with a 250), I say lean is good.
