    My briggs has a little mss at high idle and lopes bad at low idle??
    I have a 14hp briggs on a 2004 toro 1438z ztr mower. It has a nikki carb which I rebuilt 2 days ago. When I start it it runs OK at high idle though it misses some, but when I idle it all the way down it lopes badly and occasioaly backfires. Is this a fuel solenoid problem or what??

I have a 94 Grand Am 3.1 liter engine that while in park idles at about 2500 RPM and when you put it in gear may go down to about 1500RPM. After warming up a bit it might drop to about 2000 RPM. Didn't see any obvious problems.
