On the LSN I am around flush, any more lean and my idle "races up". But it almost seems like it needs to be leaner, getting some load up after low-mid throttle sections when I need to get WFO again.

I figured I would use a 12% oil 30% sidewinder fuel for the first breakin gallon. I am @ 5000ASL

Thanks!

Probably the typical, lean top rich bottom routine Stuart

needle settings are approx. Starting points, not necessarily exact settings, especially for where you are running at

if the engine loads up to the point of a serious bog after sitting for 20sec then the lsn is definitely too rich.
