Well I have the needle valve extension installed. I did find that the hex nut was MM, 1.5MM. I thought about using locktite but went without. I changed out the fuel tubing to glow so engine is set to go. I just need to check and set the idle. Looks like it will be a rain event this week in Texas. Will need to wait for that flight trial. Time for double n triple checking things.


GB the sawhorse is an original Black & Decker Workmate. I cannot remember when I bought it. It has to be 25-30 years old. I am a tool n equipment nut. Thus the reason for building a storage building. Move storage n little used tools n equipment to the storage building n open up space in the main workshop. Can't Wait !!!


I do have a question using a prop nut. I can't remember how I used it in the past. The engine came with a prop washer. So, do I install prop, washer then prop nut? Or is it prop then prop nut?
