I just wanted to bring up the manucaturer settings for the high speed and low speed needles. The high speed needle is set to 2 3/4 turns, that seems a little high, but fairly standard. The low speed however isn't done quite that way. The low speed is adjusted so that it is flush with the edge of the carb, and then screwed in 1.5 turns. This actually means that its somewhere between 2-3 turns out. To me that seems to be far too rich. At idle I am getting unburnt fuel spitting out of the exhaust.

I've been reading a little further in the manual, re-reading, and it says that if it doesn't accelerate rapidly, then its running too rich.

I am going thru a full tank in about 5-7 minutes, and although its a .30, that still seems high.

Just a thought..
