RE: New to hobby and having some problems...
Yeah, I was just gonna suggest checking the idle screw and leaning it a little. Just keep in mind that these are SUGGESTED settings from the factory. Not all engines will run properly with the factory settings. But, also keep an eye on your temps when you do get it running by leaning it a little. If its not broke in yet, you want to keep plenty of fuel flowing. Remember that new engines can be a pain at first, just give it some time.
