RE: ASP FS61 midrange problems
I would first try re-adjust the carb.
Open up the low speed screw about one full turn
Now run the engine with the throttle full speed and adjust the high speed needle to peak RPM
Then lean the low speed needle just to the point where the engine doesn't want to accelerate from idle. At this time open the idle needle up just enough to where you can accelerate to full throttle after the engine has idled for 10 sec.
At this point, you are ready to go back to full speed and find the peank rpm and then richen the needle out three or four clicks.
The engine should now run fine.
