Always make sure both are functioning properly.
Squeeze the throttle lever to make sure it compresses evenly and

idle position without binding or hesitation. If the throttle does not func-
tion smoothly, or if you discover excessive lever freeplay, DO NOT start
the engine. Have the throttle serviced immediately.
