you have spent hours cranking on the needles...trust me bro, that is not how you get a nitro to run.....

Also a 1 mm idle gap is far too big as it is, anything larger is is way out of range.........You want to set a 0.5 mm idle gap, then set your LSN around that.......

also fuel isn't just fuel..some fuels are absolute junk and others can be quite good.....what is the oil content of the swill your trying to run ?
