ha ok well thanks for all of the help everybody, turns out when its doing that high idle crap i couldn't notice a change in idle with the spray trick, however i repeated that and noticed it would smoke out the tail pipe, the rod that runs through both carbs for the throttle linkage was leakin like a sive, so for a whopping 30 cents a piece i just bought some rubber caps and put them right over top, they allow for the throttle to still move freely and BAM purrrrrrrrs like a kitten, yea its a temporary fix limited by the weathering life of the rubber caps but hey for 30 cents a piece i think i can afford to replace them as often as necessary.
