Ok, when i prime my engine gas comes out of the medium speed needle valve. Is that supposed to happen. The MSN also seems really loose because when I'm driving it around its really hard to keep my truck tuned. When i hit the gas alot the MSN gets leaned out. Frustrating!!! Isnt supposed to be a little harded for the MSN to move so that the setting wont change?
 
the msn has been a problem with a lot of xl owners, i have no idea what hpi's response will be ,but most have been setting the msn to flush and than appling a small amount of rtv to seal the outside of the needle.. other wise ,you will lose it. lots have!!!
