Do I need to ask my question here or somewhere else? About the 90 elbow and securing muffler.

Status: offline 		It just hangs on the lines. I would say that the nipple on the Cline and the carb are about 1/4" apart inside the line. It's actually pretty close to the exhaust manifold, but I'll just keep an eye on it through the first dozen flights and look for signs of rubbing. If it does rub, I'll probably just zip tie the line from the tank to hold it away from anything. I love the idle and transition with the regulator on. I actually had it idling at less than 1400 rpm for over a minute, if I remember right. It's smooth at 1800.

The muffler should not be secured with zip ties. The Saito 90 degree adapter in known for breaking when the stock muffler is attached.

Status: online 		Thanks Rex. I think supporting the regulator on the fuel lines should work for me too. Mine is probably about the same distence from the carb. as yours. Ron

Status: offline 		Hi folks,

Just a quick question , how low should a .72 idle ?? I purchased mine used and am having a little trouble keeping it running around 2000 rpms . It will idle all day around 2300 rpms . Should I reset the carb to the stock settings and start over or is this about normal ?? Running YS 20/20 Wildcat turning 9900 rpms with an APC 14x4W and thats set rich. It actually runs really well with 10% Omega also, about 9500 rpms , just can't get the idle any lower.

Andy
