Hello hello hello any one here lol jk. Hope someone can help. I'm in a bit of a crunch here and can't pin point the issue. Ok here is the Quick run down. new out of the box Go with Go pipe broke in with idling, figure eights then slow runs half throttle around the track keeping temps at 220 with quick full throttle down the straight. That's my break in method. 1/2 gal felt good, 2/3 gal motor was awesome even ran rich with tons of smoke and now at 1 gal I get flame outs. I know what to look for when flame outs happen. Plugs, leaks, sucked dirt ect... All is well. Things that changed from 2/3 gal from 1 gal are new fresh buggy(mugen us spec), Go pipe got sold during time off to a friend, went back to stock settings and plug brand being changed. Broke it in with 97t. I run os motors so when that 97t died I put a p3 which was in my stock but it didn't last at all and not sure why. Went back to 97t and flame outs are less but still flaming. I used the stock setting from the info given a pages back because I couldn't figure why it was flamming with the p3. I have the 2 needle carb so I did flush and flush and tune from there. Bottom as good power but you can hear the clearing out while throttling with tons of smoke. If I go any leaner on the bottom then it bogs. I spend last practice tuning it myself then asking for help from pros. I feel top is great, bottom has good power but motor has tons of smoke as if I'm breaking it in. And for the flame outs, they just happen. One min it can be upside down and still run, the nxt it only takes a few secs then it's out. Even with fuel. I can go a few laps with no issues then come in to pit and it dies when refueling even with fuel left. From new to 2/3 gallons the motor never never never flammed not even while on my lid for a few secs. Where should I start or what should I do? I loved it new but now I'm too scared to even club race it let alone dare use it for a trophy race.
Thanks
