Status: offline 		Hi guys,

I have a little satan with a norvel .15 on it. Every time I fly though the motor cuts out. I've tried leaning riching for a whole after flight after flight non-stop to no avail. Then I tried taking the muffler off, there is no difference, the needle valve is almost al the way out, like 1/2 a turn away!!

Can anybody help me?

Thanks

LeBlanc

Status: offline 		It is the junior satan, my mistake ... Now I have fully cleaned the whole spray bar system, fuel tank, tubing ect... it's a little better. 4 1/2 turns away but runs the same, although I can fly it for a whole tank now, but if I do any stuns with it, wingover, loop, anything to change the attitude, the motor cuts.... hmmm I think that I might be the lenght of the fuel tank, it's 4 inches back and maybe the motor can't draw the fuel that it needs...

Any help?

Thanks

LeBlanc

The exhaust port is the one higher than the transfer port. You can check through the exhaust port with the muffler off. If you can see any of the piston at B.D.C. your liners back to front......John

Are you running a pressure tank?
