Set the low speed air bleed screw so that it is halfway across the little hole. Peak the high speed needle then back off a few clicks, same as usual. Make small adjustments to the low speed needle to get a good transition from idle to full throttle. The air bleed screw is the opposite of the low speed needle on 2-needle carbs. Screw the air bleed screw in for a richer mixture.
I had a 45SS with an air bleed carb and loved it. I now have two of their 50SS engines. Great engines! The 50SS engines have dual needles.
They seem to run best on 5% or 10% nitro. Some say you should run them on castor for the iron sleeve. I run a 5% nitro 50/50 castor/synthetic blend. The Enya #3, Enya #4, OS 8 plugs work well.

Hi!
What do you mean by: "I can't get peak rews"?
If you just run fresh fuel containing 5%-10% nitro, An Enya 3 or OS 8 glowplug, 10x6-11x6 prop (Preferably APC) and using a 8oz fuel tank, with pressure from the original silencer ...and the engine is in good condition, I can see no reason why it should not rew around 13000-14000 rpm on a 10x6 APC prop (if it is the ball-bearing engine you have got).
If you don't get it to rew that much you better check the engine out.
It could be worn out (piston to cylinder liner fit bad, connecting rod worn out and worn out ball-bearings)
Regards!

RE: enya 40 older model
Thank you for the reply,my mispelling must be confusing,word should revs,not rews .Apparently this motor was received new with the updated S4040 carburater in place of the original 40130 [notice in box issued with motor] and their is not to much detail for it in the operating instruction.The motor has heaps of compression and seller informed me it has had little use so all i can conclude is that it needs some some more running in and carby adjustment during this period.SQUIZZY.
