rwahl,
Join date 2004, yet this post lacks what I would call minimum required information. OK Sooooo....

Like the following:
your level of gasoline 2 stroke tuning, beginner, expert? (or did someone else tune your engine)
what prop are you using?
what fuel oil ratio are you using?
how is the engine mounted and cowled? ( a picture would be best)
what are your needle settings?
what is your fuel tank setup?

Answering these questions would help in a solution from this community.
