That thing with the red top is your OVP relay not the idle control. If your OVP is out your idle will be low along with your tach not working among other things.

I had similar symptoms when I got my SDL but new fuel filters took care of that. Check your small inline filter to see if it is clean. Check closely to make sure there isn't a film over the filter material. If so, you may have an algae problem in your tank and would want to change that filter along with the tank strainer when you clean out your tank.
