This will get you going and then fine tune from there. Should be pretty close on the top needle, maybe a little tweaking on the bottom needle from that setting.
Be aware the top needle is very sensitive to adjustment (like 1/16 at a time).
Hope you enjoy the GX-3R, they are a great little motor.
Thanks Shane that is just what i was looking for. i let you all know how i went. i will race it this weekend.
