I had a little bit of trouble with high low idle but since switching to werks fuel I set my idle gap and set the needles back to flush and it was very easy to tune. This engine runs really good even when its set up a little rich, I am getting exactly 10 min on a tank running just over 200 degres.
Hobbs263, thanks for posting your feedback on the engine. Glad that you are liking it! Your running our fuel so you may want to pull out on of the thin head shims, this will drop the deck height a bit and result in a more complete combustion of the mixture. This will pick up a little bit more run time and also increase the torque. If your running our Werks 30% this is a 100% safe optimization to make that we have tested extensively and results in a noticeable improvement in performance. (if you are using other fuels please make sure that you test for signs of detonation if doing this!!!!)
