Well, here is one oldy but goody::

you have the throttle blade at low stop stopping against the linkage, not 
the idle stop screw(s for 2 carbs ) .   thus a moving target, and when you 
slap the linkage closed, it allows the blade(s) to fully close and thus kill 
the engine.

Couldnt happen, right ??   If it happens to you, do like I do and never 
admit to it.  (g).

just a thought... ken campbell, deltawerkes
