Hey ill run my Max-IV for about 30 seconds and then I can look back and see my muffler glowing cherry red on the way to the duck hole? What is the deal am I running to lean? or is it rich? I recently cleaned the carb, jets, tank, new fuel line, and filters. My choke cable is broke so i gotta get a new one. So its hard to start and it runs once I squeeze the throttle above a certain level. I dont think i have it adjusted right, but I followed the directions in the packet RI sent me.. hrmmm Any thoughts? |

Greg
I agree with Attex Bob. You are way too lean. I wouldn't run this engine anymore until you correct the problem. If you don't you WILL burn a hole in the piston. This would require a major engine overhaul. Do yourself a favor. Get more information how to tune this carburetor. My suggestion is call Richard Clark and ask his advice. Good luck. |

"Roadkill" you almost completely a full sentence in this posting! It's Close but not quite there yet Amigo, keep working on it! With enough practice even the dumbest S.O.B.'s such as your self are eventually able to communicate a complete thought! |
