Status: offline 		Does anybody know of someone who can properly do the needed work to convert a glow carb to run gas? As I understand it the needles have to be retapered to a much sharper angle as do the seats to give a much more sensitive adjustment to match the smaller fuel flow requirements. I would rather stay with the basic factory carb and redesign it internaly to accomplish a straight replacement. The intended engine is a Saito 180. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks; Jim
