Hi there
Would appreciate if someone helps me with tuning my engine.
I could manage to get it running after few hours of try. It is a mac star 28 6p engine. I use a 25% fuel.
I touched all the tuning first using factory settings mentioned in the manual. But I ended up using power supply to feed my plug and increase the current by three times. Then I had to adjust the idle because it was cutting out after several seconds. Then let it run for a while to get warm. The next issue was If I went full throttle, it did choke or otherwise didn’t have power at all if I tried accelerating. If I gradually throttled It could cope. I adjusted the full speed trim and it got way better. I understand these but what I don’t get is why I need igniter and leave it on for 10sec even when the engine is hot before pulling the handle. I literally tried to pull the handle a few seconds after it cuts out. Is this normal?
Next questions are:
-Is it normal that it used 2/3 of a thank within 30mins of driving around slowly?
-is it normal that after cold start the engine was revving up considerably to the point that car accelerated on its own?
Thanks
