Default RE: Another Question about the OS 40 LA

[:@] grr....another problem...

The engine idles at low, then when I rev it up to WOT then back down, it dies. And after about 20 seconds of idleing it dies.

I checked:

The fuel
The backplate
idle screw
needle valve (1.75 turns out)
throttle servo
glow plugs (the last 1.5 coils did not light up)(checked 4 plugs, 1 on engine and 3 NIB same on all)
glow plug ignitor (battery full)

Before, the engine wouldn't even go to full...at least now it does that. [>:]

Now, the carb is open about a little more than 1/16" for idle. I idled it up and it still dies.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
