Ok fellas I am trying to help my brother set his needles for this engine. Anyone know it by chance?
Please let me know

What size engine? On my Omega 21 Comp, both needles sit flush with the housing it screws into. At least, until I replaced the anoying carb with an OS carb...

No matter how much I tried to tune the Omega, it had a big dead spot from about 1/3 to 2/3 throttle. It was almost like an on/off switch instead of a progressive throttle.

Since I replaced it with the OS carb, it's been much better and now there's only a little blubber right in the middle unless I'm running it around 250. Any cooler than that and the blubber shows up.
 
Thanks. It is the 21. Stupid me forgot that. Sorry. I went with the general rule 3 1/2 to 4 turns out for the HSN , Lsn a little more than flush to the carb. These are only used for break in. It runs now. He also had his Throttle EPA set too high. It is running well so far.

THanks

Jon
