Make sure you have a real strong starter box and heat that baby up with a hot air gun or powerful hair dryer otherwise you will struggle to turn it over. The 5 and 7 port Go Techs have mega pinch when new. Check out the break in procedure on the bottom of page 78 on this forum. Follow this and you will be sweet. Those needle settings are spot on for break in. After 15 tanks or so you can start leaning the LSN toward 2.5 turns in from flush for normal running.
