Thank you sir! I believe this is the explanation i was looking for. I do recall having a slightly large air gap at the time. It makes sense now. It sounds like i had it slightly lean up top with a combo of a large air gap. Just a tad rich on bottom and would skip until it hit the 2nd (semi loaded) stage in the idle.

I was total noob with nitro last year, and getting into it this year I now have a better understanding of it. I just remeber it running like this last year, and then the first run I had of it this year. It has since been retuned, so for now the problem is solved lol.

Thanks again
