Default RE: NEW DLE 20cc Gasser! (Data & Links 1st Post)

Everyone I certainly appreciate the advice and ideas and I know it is kinda tough to troubleshoot without being here

Let me say a little more

The guys at the field know quite a bit about dle engines but as always can learn more

The cowl has never been on the plane other then on the workbench to make the cuts. The guys at the field won't let me fly with cowl until at least two tanks thru the engine. The screw settings on the low side were changed and then changed back the high side was checked and never moved So I don't think overheating is the issue but Can't rule it out.

I have been told that the carb can be rotated by folks on this forum and I dont know but suspect the engine wouldn't even run if the carb wasn't doing its job. At least partially. Of course. Who knows for sure

The engine runs fine for the time it does and then it just cuts out. Just like I threw the cut out switch
Its like No fuel. Or no ignition

I think I have eliminated fuel draw out of the tank

Wondering if the carb is messed up somehow or the ignition is quoting after working a while



Just want to thank everyone for chipping in and trying to help
