Hello Jim.
I just looked at the spring in your throttle linkage and it looks to
me that this is not the original Rotax part. I would order new springs
from a Rotax dealer and see if that does not change the situation.
They look more bulk than the original and also the ones I am using
have a long straight neck on one end. Take a look.
