Just had this issue pop up this morning on our 8FGCU25. I went about looking into the carb before it enters the intake manifold and found large deposits of soot where the throttle flap meets the walls. After cleaning it out there was a small clearance that the soot was obstructing and the forklift has been idling for 20 minutes and is purring like a kitten. Hope this helps someone.
