Which it has been doing...btw when I do the 30 second test and it stalls when I rev it the first time does that mean I still have to lean my LSN more?
Ya.. what happens is the motor runs out of fuel on the straight away when the HSn is too lean and when the carb shuts to idle its still lean... most people will richen and richen the LSN to compensate thinking its lean... its the opposite. It should idle solid for 30 seconds and when you give it a WOT rev on the starter box it should only load up slightly, rev it again immediately and it should be crisp. When you lean out your LSN the idle will go up.... so you'll end up closing it alittle. I think mine is 1 1/4 turn in from the slide being closed.... at least pretty close to that. After the LSN and idle are set.... you'll only mess with the HSN from track to track usually.
