Dave that is a really interesting picture,i did a quick google search and there seem to be a lot of differences compared to our stuff that we fly here.
Labelling glow fuel containers at the time is a good thing to do.Long story short got to the field,awesome flying conditions,keen as to tune it up after the first flight.They usually need that to settle down,then you can tune,well,that's the way it works for me.Tank was half full so filled it.About 1 minute into the flight the 82 started changing tune and ended up with a dead stick all good.It was unresponsive to either needle in a way.Packed up and came home intending to take the cowl off and check the usual things.It's a bugger when you see the right fuel container on the floor where it should not be.Weedkiller glo fuel sucks.

Flew the 82 again this arvo all good now.
