yea mate i think i will have to agree it does sound like an air leak , i have tried the shorter needles but IMO prefer the longer needle on the lsp , on and around the carb where it seals to the crank case i use 2 orings ,

Hi all!
I was just wondering if someone could tell me how to remove the carby form my go 3ptR. I completely removed the screw that hold the carby but it wont move.
Also how many shims do you suggest for 25% and 30% nitro?
Thanks!

but to remove the carb you have to just get it unstuck i use a wash cloth and then grip it with some plires and twist and pull.

Loosen the pinch bolt screw a couple turns, lightly tap on the screw until it pushes the pinch nut out the other side, take all the way out. Turn the carb the direction that the remaining part of the pinch bolt is. (if it's on the right turn the carb right) it should break loose fairly easy, be careful not to overtighten when putting back together.
For 30% I use one silver and one thin brass shim, they come with 2 brass. You have to be very careful not to get dirt in the motor when taking the head off.
