You might have to richen the hsn a bit after doing this. If your engine gets hotter the longer you run it, your lsn is likely too lean...this method works for me, but i will defer to Monty...lets see what he says!
pretty good gtsum


every single engine is always a little different too

but that is pretty close to how to race tune a novarossi engine
