Default RE: Needle Settings for OS .60 FSR with Perry Pump & Carb

Boy am I glad I learned this before I learned it the HARD way. Thanks for your advice everyone.

It's supposed to get cold up here again this weekend so I don't know if I'll be able to tinker with it but I'm confident now that I can smooth out that transition now with all the advice I've gotten.

One other question I have: In other posts and on Perry's website, it is recommended to install a bypass. I'm not sure if this is a solution for keeping the engine from running too rich, or if it will only serve to rob the intake line of much needed pressure. Any thoughts on this? The setup can be found [link=http://www.perrypumps.com/Pump%20and%20Bypass%20System.pdf]HERE[/link].

Thanks!

My first thought is that maybe I shouldn't be running tank pressure with a pump? Is this just not necessary or is it actually detrimental too? My other thought is maybe it's the glow plug or fuel. I'm running 15% powermaster fuel with an A3 OS plug.
One I ran that way for a while only lasted a year and a half, worked fine that way till then. Missed the warning in the instructions.
