First of all thank you guys for the input.

This is what Ive done so far. I replaced the stopper, and fuel lines in and from the tank.
I happened to have a fuel tank from an alpha that I crashed last summer, so I took out the stopper and fuel lines and put them in the new plane.

I also replaced the line between the needle and carb. I just used regular fuel line (I hope thats right), it looks much thicker than the original line that was there to start with, but the ID looked the same.

I will wait for my new fuel to arrive and then start over with the mixture settings.
If the air bubbles are gone I will try a hotter plug.
Can anyone reccomend a hot plug that will fit this engine?

If that doesnt work, and I will try the aluminum foil.
If I still have air bubbles and nothing else works I will send it in for service.

I have to find a way to make this engine run good in cool temperature or else I'm SOL living in Alaska.

Thanks for the help so far I will let you know how it goes.
