back on track now, the Max Power MF engine. I just got one and I am in the process of breaking it in. I've idled it in and I am starting to lean it out. What is a good temp that others have been seeing? This engine is new, and I have turned the needles down 2 full turns on the high end just to get it to idle after turning the low end in 2 turns as well, Otherwise, it would just idle for about 2 seconds and when you tried to give it a little throttle, it would load up and die out. Does this seem about right for this engine.

One other thing, my friend has one of the same engines and he was going to sell it to me. I took it apart to inspect it and found that his sleeve appears to be a bone stock novarossi sleeve and when I look at mine, it has some very nice porting doen to it. Why would this be?
thanks
james
