What does it mean when the rev count goes up and down when idling?

Hi There, It sounds like you may have a dirty or failing idle air control valve causing your engine idle to fluctuate. When the idle air control valve is not working properly, this cause a disruption in this process resulting in the engine not being able to idle properly.

Why do the Revs go up when the throttle is off?

As you slowly turn it out it should begin to idle smoother and the idle speed should come up. If you have the correct pilot jet then before you get to 3 turns out on the fuel screw the idle will go up, peak, then start to slow down again. Set the fuel screw near where it idles the best.

Why does my bike lose power when I idle?

Again, if you ride a modern bike you’ll have no idea what a choke is, but even Electronically Fuel Injected motorcycles reveal a lot by “blipping” the throttle. Rich bikes are getting too much gas, so they idle high but lose power when given initial throttle because they can’t burn all the gas.

What does it mean when your ATV won’t idle?

When the engine idles fine but won’t rev up, it is a sign of it getting too little fuel, but it can also be because it is getting too much fuel. The ATV may run fine at low speeds, but as soon as you apply a little or a lot of throttle, the engine will bog down and turn off.
