Need pics for help please
If you look at my last picture, you'll see an adjustment there as well. I used both to fine tune when it upshifts. It took a lot of adjusting, test ride, adjusting, test ride, etc until it was where I wanted it.
Your seems fine at the carb. Except, some people don't like the solid rod because it could jam the throttle open. If that happens I'll just go into neutral and turn off the key!!
