I have the Lifan 2800 inverter.
The idle doesn't drop down much from full throtle. Does anyone know how to adjust this. Ifound the screw that will let the idle drop but the electronic pot won't let it go that low.

If the screw adjustment makes no difference, you most likely have a defective stepper motor or, worse yet, problems within the inverter module that control the stepper.
The current crop of inverter modules coming out of China are programmable via software. Thus, changes can be made to the inverter module's decision making process on a running change basis as the manufacturer finds necessary. This is similar to the ability to "reflash" the PCM in one of today's cars or trucks, printers, cameras, etc. The down side is I do not know of any link or open source software so that you or I could perform a reflash or upgrade.
I suggest that you get in touch with your Lifan Technical Service department to discover if there is something going on with the stepper or module itself that can be field corrected. If not, they "may" have an exchange program available for upgrading the module without having to fork over several hundred $$$ for a new one.
Keep in mind my relationship with Lifian is minimal - this is just "generic" advice. Your results may vary.
