Default RE: My very first PATRIOT!

I am having a very difficult time trying to tune my YS 45. It seems to run its best 1 1/2 turns out. Every time I hit full throttle though, the engine seems to bog down, and if I keep it at full, it will cut off. The owners manual states start out a 3 turns out, but that seems very rich to me, and the engine doesnt even want to start up at 3 turns. I usaully run my o.s engines about 1 1/2-2 turns out, but the ys seems to heat up really quick with this. I have tried and tried to get the engine running right, and set the needle at all different positions. The engein and tuned pipe always seem to heat up really fast. I am running standard 10% omega.. And a plug, which I dont even know. I think its the stock plug. Is there a different fuel and plug set up I should use??? This is my first YS engine, and first tuned pipe. I am just a little lost. Any information would be helpful. Thanks. Justin
