Thanks to ticky fir his pm reply:
"Hi,
I would at 1st remove it & clean it with spray brake cleaner. Retry & see if that works. If not try adjusting it by undoing the 2 small screws & turn the whole assembly until your rpm rises slightly.
If all above fails get a 2nd replacement, many breakers out there.
Ticky"
Can someone kindly post a pic showing where the idle switch is so I can clean it please? Im still learning about this engine and im not that mechanicaly minded
