OK, this might be the dumbest question yet.

I fitted my brand new weber 34ICH today. After dealing with all sorts of nagging issues, I went to crank it over. After a try or two it lights off, but then instantly starts to red-line.

Looking everything over, it looks like something's wrong with the accelerator linkage. My linkage pushes the lever up when you press the pedal. The weber wants the lever pulled down to accelerate.

In fact, I can start it right up by flooring the pedal and holding it there, which idles the truck. When I start to let off of the pedal, is starts to accelerate.

Obviously something got screwed up along the way. I don't see any way to re-work the pedal, and I don't see any way to re-work the carb.

Of course, Rovers North closes at noon eastern on saturdays, so they were closed before the box even arrived at my door this morning.

Has anyone heard of this before? Am I just have an epic blonde moment???
