FBF cable installed...now running too rich.

I installed the cable 200-300 miles ago. Noticed increase in oil consumption but no big deal. Have checked plugs and it's been running a little rich but I had also been adding oil in the tank the first couple tanks as a precaution with the new top end. Most miles were put on at 1300 ft. Rode at 6700 ft last weekend and noticed the idle would get really low when I was lugging it in deep snow. Idle seemed to be better after I got on a trail for a while. Took a look at the plugs when I got home and they were black (way too rich) and I'm assuming that was the reason for the low idle. I took TBs off to check adjustment and the two marks are lined up perfectly. Fuel mileage was good...around 10 mpg.

Any suggestions on adjustment? Plugs seemed to be about perfect with the stock oil cable but I did not note if the marks were lined up when I replaced with FBF cable.

you can set the mark a little bit back to cut down on oil usage. Just don't go too far with it!

also you should check your tps adjustment it will affect idle. it should be .93-.97 volts at idle the higher the altitude raise the voltage 0-3000 .93 3000-8000 .95 8000 and up .97 that is what it says in the shop manual for the 06 900's

I agree with BIGGDAWG, my tps was off and the idle was around 1250 rpms and plugs were coated with oil and carbon. Reset the tps and it's much better now.
