Default RE: MDS 2.18

Josh, it ran very well easily besting a Zenoah G45 for power and nearly equalling the G62. It had some of the big Diesel crankcase loading up during extended idling when upright. It was mounted on its side on a large Sig Space???. It wore a Bisson Pitts muffler that gave it a booming throb that was pleasant and not loud.


Talking more about the MDS carbs, they had a short, steep taper on the LS needle which caused the sweet spot to be narrow requiring patience to find it.
