There is an RC god!!!!!!!

I figured out the noise that my engine was making. It wasnt the fuel because I got some new fuel today and it was doing the same thing. I do have another problem now but I think this one everyone will be able to figure it out much easier.

Are you ready for what the problem was? Drum roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The low speed needle was to lean. LOL. I dont know why I did this but I just gave the low speedle needle two full turns out from frustration and the noise went away. Reset my idle threw it on the ground and no more noise.

Here is what I am facing now.

I richened it to where there was very little power and it would flame out. I leaned the LSN 1 hour at a time until it ran consistently with no flame outs. As I kept leanning 1 hour at a time the power on the low punch would not get better. It felt gutless. I kept leanning and the noise came back so I richened it just under where the noise would stop.

The engine is not making great power now. What should I do next? Another thing I noticed was no matter where I move the lsn the same amount of smoke would come out whether it was rich or lean?
