I have an 88' xp200. I starts and runs good with the high idle on. When I take the high idle off it idled at 1200rpm, then it shot up to 2200rpm and stayed there till I killed it. when I try to put it in gear it shifts hard and it kills the motor. What can I check to try and fix it?

Sounds like lean running, carbs need cleaning or have air leak on intake.

I took the carbs off yesterday, took them apart and sprayed cleaner thu them. (havent had a chance to put it back in the water yet) I did find a fuel line that was just pushed on the fitting with no clamp so i clamped it. Would one line not being clamped have that much affect on the system? Also what do I need to check on the intake?

Loose line could affect the way it runs. Look for bad gaskets or orings on intake manifold.
