If you cant keep it hot enough wrap alfoil round the head ...

allright, thats what i thought, just wanted to make sure.
i have no idea what shims are, what they do, how to remove them, how to tell how many i have..
what would be the problem if sometimes when i start it, i let it idle for about 20 seconds, then i accelerate... sometimes quite fast, and it dies. is it just because i need to idle it for a bit longer, or is it not getting enough gas? other than that it runs perfectly, i love my lrp .28... almost too much power, damn hard to control on ice, grass, cement, gravel.. etc.
