Default KC laser - replaced headgasket...now it revs too high?

Howdy,

I replaced the head gasket on my mrs 86 KC laser. It started all good, and ruuns smooth.

Accept the idle. The car seems to hold the idle a little too high, and doesnt drop when the car gets warm.

I noticed i think that it has the auto choke (on the carby)

Is there anything i can check to see if ive connected something wrong?

Has anyone got a KC laser manual i can have a look at, specifically the carby section?

Any ideas as to what i can do?

thanks

ok, had a closer look at it, and ive found the large red wire coming off the auto choke solenoid (large round black thing on passenger side of carby)

I cant tell where it plugs back onto?

Anyone know?
