Jeff - Ibought some parts for myused Lama from you on Wednesday; HNCANTOR;

I was wondering about the shake problem I had. I have/will do the following:

1) replace rubber dampers
2) clean & regrease blade holder bearings
3) put on new set of 550 symmetrical blades, properly balanced
4) replace beat up old muffler
5) check main shaft and replace if needed
6) spindle looks okay

Is there anything else I need to do?

ALso; has os 32H engine, used. On spool up, it quit several times as I tried to take it past about 60% throttle. I had throttle about 4 turns out, running rich, tried it leaner, same thing happened. Has a new plug in it. I removed engine, replaced the carb gasket and retightened the carb screws while pressing down on the carb. Engine looks okay, no head leaks & compression is good. I'll try it again tomorrow. Is there anything I am missing that isn't obvious re the high speed cutout?
