I'm having a heck of a time getting this SH .28 to run right (at all) When we last left off I was having to lean out the LSN just to get it to idle and run w/o the glow ignitor hooked up.. Well once I did that it was showing all the signs of being too lean on the lsn.. If I richen it at all it'll struggle to take off and die as soon as it loads up with fuel.. If I lean it back out it idles so high it wants to run off.. If I goose the throttle it'll idle down for a second then right back up too high.. If I lower the idle screw it wont run at all.. What gives? It's still not fully broken in, but man, the tune is acting so erratic?? It was getting up to around 200*, but when I let it idle high (sounds like a chatter) it got up to 240 so I shut it down and put it up for the day.. (I'd already burned almost a full tank of fuel just tryin to get it to run.. I sealed the engine and carb, I wonder if I could of screwed up the carb (entroduced an air leak) somehow? I dunno, I'm about at my wits end with this thing.. Basically the only way I can get it to run and accept throttle is to over lean the lsn and have the idle WAY too high.. I've tried the HSN from a half turn rich to a half turn lean (from stock) w/o any real difference.. Any ideas?? Thanks.. :\
