RE: Engine Problems
FH, good way to clean the fuel up. I've used course ground wheat flour before, though the corn meal would more than likely work better.

Wings-You may have a problem where the tube comes out of the tank ie. it's sharp, and cutting your tubing. When you take it apart, use some sandpaper to smooth the end of the tube 220 grit should be fine. Also to check for "pin holes" use a moderate amount of pull and stretch the fuel tubing, this will show any holes. Don't give up, and if you get mad, just take a break-no Mexican Hat Dancing on the plane!!! Fix it right, and you'll be glad you did. You've taken it apart several times, so it's just a little easier now. (last summer I took apart the transmission on a rare motorcycle I own 40 times before I got it to work!!!!! No kidding!) So keep at it, and you WILL get it. I also have a kitchen garbage bag full of old tanks ect. if you need one, let me know, and I'll ship you a ready to go tank, just let me know the size.
Sometimes it tough when you don't have a hobby shop who will help, or not much money, or whatever, just stick with it, and I promise, you WILL enjoy this hobby!
