How do you take the tors switch off. I unscrewed the idle screw and it stops. I think there is a lock nut under it in the spring. My tors is acting up when i release the throttle and try to get back on it the sled bogs. I have to stop let it go back to 1500rpms and then it is fine until i let go of the throttle again. I cleaned the carbs again no change bypassed the tors it fixed the issue
 
If I remember correctly the idle screw has to be turned clockwise to get the switch off.
 
Make sure the throttle lever is working correctly. Meaning that when you press the throttle lever, the pivot point moves laterally before the throttle lever rotates around the pivot point.

Before trying to disconnect the tors I would make sure the throttle is rigged correctly.
 
throttle is adjusted correctly 2mm at the thumb control. there is slack at the cable. when I had the carb off I tried to get the switch off. It just stopped and wouldn't unscrew. Has anyone replaced the switch before ther must be some sort of trick to get it off. I hope I can do it without taking the carbs off again

hold the throttle open and turn the idle screw clockwise and it will come right off. Watch for the spring so it doesn't fall to the bottom. That can be fun to try to dig out. lol
