[What did you do to your model today?]

Fitted new heavy duty turnbuckles to my savage xl , as old ones keeped popping off

[Hyper .21, engine stalls under acceleration (not needle issue)]

get the engine warm on stock settings , run up and down and tune the hsn only till you got as much power as possible and then back off 1/8 of a turn so there is smoke still coming out of the exhaust then tune the lsn so you car shoots off like a rocket but has smoke still coming out of the exhaust then adjust the idle or watch this video https://youtu.be/ma2_CghxiUk

[Hyper .21, engine stalls under acceleration (not needle issue)]

well you can feel the pich when you pull the pull start plus another way is to take the engine out and hold it by the fly wheel and if the engine spins around then yeah its lost its pinch , so new liner and piston , but then again there are engines out there that are cheaper now that oyu can get , but then i would go back to stock needle settings and try again , if all fails , you then check for air leaks and then check the pinch ,also make sure your air filter is new or clean as that will effect the tuning

[Hyper .21, engine stalls under acceleration (not needle issue)]

HYPER ENGINES - 21

A) High Speed Needle Low Speed Needle C) Idle Screw D) Midrange. Do NOT Adjust!

Turn both the High Speed and Low Speed needles (screws) to flush in relation to the collar/sleeve. This means bringing the top of the screw head even with the top of the sleeve or collar in which its housed. Leave the LSN (Low Speed Needle) flush with it's sleeve. Do NOT adjust the Mid-Range Needle. Call tech support if you made adjustments to this screw. Then turn the HSN (High Speed Needle) in 1 turn from flush. Closer to 2 turns in from flush will make the engine run faster, but your temperature can get too high quickly. Stick to 1 turn unless you are more experienced.

[Hyper .21, engine stalls under acceleration (not needle issue)]

is this a brand new engine or second hand

 

[Hyper .21, engine stalls under acceleration (not needle issue)]

lean the high speed needle and adjust the idle anti clockwise to bring the rev s down , but it sounds like you have played with the low speed neelde as well
