Matt:

It's been so long since the initial running of mine that I don't have any idea where they are set now, I never have to move them very much on a given day. If you start at 3 1/2 turns open you wont be far wrong, and you can go from there.

I got frustrated trying to hand start these engines when new, so I reversed the rubber cup in my big Sullivan starter to make it work, but it was still awkward. I have since gotten the smaller Sullivan starter (Green Hornet?) and it does well. There is (was?) a starter supplied by Norvel that could be used also.

Bill.
