landmaxdriver Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Start the engine, let it warm up and then try tuning it if you try adjusting it while its not running your just going to get into a bit of a mess Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiftypowers Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 sounds far too rich set it lean bit by bit dont floor it brake it in as you go lean and then when there is just a bit of smoke coming out of the pipe you should be set go on youtube see how to tune. shiftypowers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HATZY Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 take the glow plug out, stick it in the glow start and see what the glow is like. if its a good strong orange colour, its ok, if its dull, faded or has a buildup on the end of the coil that is soldered to the threaded body of the plug then you need a new plug. also what needle are you tryin to adjust?

HATZY Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 take the glow plug out and stick it in your glow start. if its got a good strong orange glow then the plug is fine, if its dull, faded or has a build up on the coil where its soldered to the threaded body of the plug then you need a new plug. also what needle are you trying to tune?

markbromark Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 really? so it has no lsn then? what fuel are you running? what condition is the glow plug? the glow plug is good using 16% zzip/model technic trying to tune both screws the only way i can get the fuel to stop comeing out of the exaust is by leaning the screw that the fuel pipe is attached to.but then it will rev up but dies after half throttle could the carb be nackerd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HATZY Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 is their any play in the throttle slider or any visible signs that you can see. check the nip bolts that hold the carb in place to make sure they and loose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
