Default Re: Lean MisFire

Marc, What kind of fuel are you running? If it is the watered down methanol that is so popular you will have a hard time getting any engine with a carb to run smooth. I increased my main jets from 50 to 55, this helped but MPG went south-10-12. As an experiment try a tank full of the recreation, (alcohol free), fuel. seems to be a lot better ,but over $4.00/ gal. it should be. It has a plus side-cold start up no choke.
