Default Re: My engine goes to wide open soon as I start it,HELP!!

the spring on the sv carbs/tb's is strong and there is no need for a close cable. the close cable is there for better control of position of the throttle.

if you pull the throttle grip wide open and let go it will snap back, this has nothing to do with the close cable. its the return spring on the throttle butterfly that closes the throttle. if your throttle does not snap back then there is something fouling.

i would say you have a stuck throttle cable or something is jammed.
