[B]Just ran the engine for the first time with the Iron Bay regulator. I have a Saito 100, fuel tank is on the CG. before the regulator I had the highspeed needle open 1 3/4, Now it's open about 4 turns. Is this normal? Seems to run better, I haven't adjusted the low end yet, it's very close where it was.
Also, for you guys that have the fuel tank on the CG. how many inches is your CG form the leading edge?


My Saito 100 with a cline reg, runs just under 4 turns out. I always thought this was odd, but possibly not. What I have noticed though, setting the high speed, using a tach, it seems there is a LOT of needle adjustment from peek, till it drops. Backing it off from peek is the same. I start rich, slowly lean it till it peeks, then back 1/8 turn. I have no reference or help here, and I barely get 8 min. to a tank. The low end is lean out also.

C.G 6 1/4 back.
