Ok, even 90:1 should be just fine. So, that plug is sorta new, hm.Um, you do know, Sabre also contains a fuel stabilizer ? Nothing needs be added.So, about the carb adjustments ~ Did you warm up the engine, adjust the bleed screw for best idle and then turn it counterclockwise about 1/8 turn ? That will negate running to lean, which is a very bad thing.I'm sure you know what you're doing ~ I'm just asking, ha.
The addition of fuel stabilizer being added is only in the last two years, so you did good with the Seafoam. The newer containers 'state' the fuel stabilizer is included.Did it make sense, what I said about 1/8 turn on the bleed screw ? After any adjustments, the idle must be reduced to prevent the clutch engaging to spin the business end, ha. With idle lower another bleed screw adjustment must be done for highest idle, and then 1/8 turn cc. (Too lean is bad) The fuel/oil mixture is a small part of the cooling system ~ Don't burn it up, ha.
Had to give it a small amount of throttle to get it to fire over dinner. If I can keep a good idle do you think it would be beneficial to richen it up a little more? 1/4 turn? Also what causes the spinning at startup? Is it running lean right when it fires? I know its not a problem as mine as done it since new but was just curious.
