I have used many different fuels with it and it has been the same on each one, just small power differences. Currently I have been using YS 20/20 from Wildcat...
4*60, Just one more reason why I bought this engine...
Just give it a shot, it takes 2 minutes to check it out, but I promise you that is the problem. You can have it up and running tomorrow or you can wait 2 weeks for YS to service it, your choice.
I dont understand exactly why this causes this problem but after flying only YS engines for the past 10 years I have seen it enough to know that fuel pouring out of the carb after shutdown is almost 100% of the time a faulty check valve.
