Default RE: Evolution 58 NOT THE same as MVVS58??

I just purchased an Evolution 58 and have been having trouble with my engine. The max rpm with a 24-8 prop is 6000, seems like it should be a little more. I have the setting correct too. I have been having other problems and the engine won't idle down and likes to run in reverse. When hand propping about every 4th or 5th start will be reverse. Fuel seems to be dripping from the carb and it is hard to start. I have to crimp the fuel line until it hits to get it running. Anyone else had any trouble like this?? I'm thinking the motor may have low compression for one and a metering adjustment problem allowing fuel to flow too rich while running.
