so hard to say as there are many variables but usually a tad lean on low if after full throttle applied and engine revs up a little then idles normal in less than 3-4 seconds . if the engine idles up and then has a nice blubbery sounding idle for more than 3-4 sec. then it is usually rich with too large of an idle gap . too lean lsn leaves engines with tingy sounding idle and usually minor lean bog when running unless overcompensated with richer than normal hsn . like i said , could be one of many things though . like said before , sticky carb or linkage .
Monty i have done my home work i just replaced the orings in the carb today.. (a bit bigger with some greese on them) to prevent the lsn from creating the air leak
will test my progress tomorrow its to late to run a nitro here in the city.

I see that you've created an OS Speed out of blown up engine parts. Your skills as a Jedi are now complete.
well actually if i go wot and let off it will slow down like a jake break kinda thing its kind of funny to hear.... but it always returned to idle but thinking back yesterday while running it when i did slam on the breaks it brought it to an idle very quick.

now thats just bad.
