make sure your fuel line isn't too short from pipe to tank. make line 1.5 times longer than pipe tip to header edge.
TomB:

Think I can rule out being a fuel issue, tried old blend and had same issues after some retuneing. I also was able to get one of the club members to try his hand and tuning it and it will only run for a few minutes and then flame out.

Starting to think compression is too tight still and it is just oiling up as I can't clear its throat enough.

Time to find where I put that old Picco and forget about this STS rubbish

Thanks again Andrew
