no thats a seperate thing, but check that too! the choke itself has its own electrical heater

Took me a while to get round to this but i've checked the choke cover and it gets red hot pretty quick and both heaters have a decent amount of current going to them so any ideas what to do next? i tried loosening the 3 screws keeping the choke on and turning it back but that didn't seem to help? Is the idle adjustment screw number 9? the one with the long sleve over it? would i be able to try and balance the idles out by adusting the screw number 35 and balancing that with the idle screw? I'm fresh out of ideas
thanks
