RX Warrior carb issues

Don't know if anyone else had this problem, when i stop the sled it stays at a high idle for a while (around 2500) before it goes into a normal idle. If i shut the ignition off and turn it right back on it goes to idle. Throttle and choke cables seem to be adjusted right, idle screw has to be set at a low idle otherwise the high idle goes to 3500. Not sure if this is a carb issue or electrical.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Did you test if they were actually leaking first?

I don't believe there is any sealant on them from the factory but someone might of had a leak (same one you are chasing) and tried to fix it with silicon caulk or something like that. Do you have a picture of it?

All I do is spray some silicon spray to lube up the boots prior to install. I also warm them up with a heat gun / hair dryer.

It's a bit of a pain to get the airbox/boots on and off
Read this that's kind of how you do it

I did test with carb cleaner first but didn't notice much difference but looked at the boots and noticed that two of then looked distorted from bottom of clamp slipping towards airbox. I do lube the boots with WD40 before i put then on the carbs. Good info on how to install on the other thread, hard to see where the bottom of the clamps are on the middle two carbs. Thanks

As mentionned Grab your propane torch... unlit go around everything in the engine gaskets etc anything on the intake path and check for leaks.

can't recall you Cleaned the carbs already? If they are gummy / sticking / misadjusted (to lean) you'll get high idle like that.

A lean condition will cause high idle.
