ok so i got a problem, i bust my car out today and at first it was runnin fine, but my tuning is starting to get messed up. i would put it at say 2 1/2 turn out and run down the street, then when i would come back it would bog for a few seconds and then run fine at higher speeds, i would stop and it would do it again, bog out for a couple seconds. but i would bring it back to me and i would lean the hsn a little bit and it would do the same thing, be good on the first run, but on the way back and after that it would bog until i brought it back to me. i thought maybe it was the lsn but i would turn that both ways and it didnt help. does anybody know what it might be. also i know the lsn is flush with the collar, after that do you just lean it out or what, i never got that i just always left it flush.

is it hot or cold there. at night its chilly right and during the day hit as anything. like florida but with out the humidity.... so change youhave to do a little depending night or day runs.

but the lsn is for the punch, the begining past when you gas it. the hsn is for the top speed part. so it punches and then bogs its the hsn... it slow starts and bogs then speeds up its the lsn.

yes start flush and turn slight turns clockwise i believe, like not more than a qaurter turn at a time and may take few start and stops...

what engine? this .28 has been tricky for me. i used to run only the .15 pro and the .18 engines, so this is more effort to adjust. but once there all other adjustments are minor they say.

hope this helps. any correct me if i am wrong.

if it's the sh .28 check the ling for more info. http://www.happysale.dk/images/SH28.pdf

sounds like the lsn. boggs from the start, it's the lsn. bogg after the start its the hsn.

remember, when you put it wide open you should see smoke, if not, it's too lean and you'll burn the engine up. smoke is good.

otherwise... some else needs to answer.
