Status: offline 		my ex with this set up is that if the low end is not set real close to lean it will sag in slow rolls. I do have the same plane and motor set up. Also know someone that was having this same problem untill the low was set correctly. With the low set correct , when cold it will not take the gas.

If any adjustments you make or have made do not seem to help, try checking
the fuel flow thru any and all filters you have in the plane. It doesn't take much
clogging to cause the problem you mention. There's a screen filter inside of the
carbuerator that should be checked, but only by experienced persons.
It may be over kill, but my fuel systems have three filters, not counting the one
in the carbuerator. Pick-up clunk in the gas can, a filter on the gas line on top of
the gas can (electric pump system) and a filter between the "Y" and Carbuerator
I've never experienced a sagging problem.

I agree with Woodbutcher, same issue with a 100. Now it takes almost a minute before takoff,,,, right into a hover ,,, on the deck !!!
