Default RE: two lines on Poulan 25cc from carb to tank !

FYI
I ran the engine with a 2 stroke plug and 40:1 fuel. It runs OK. Battery stays on the plug with this setup. I have not had time to adjust the high and low idle but I will tell you that through suggestions on other threads I opened hi and low adjustments 1/2 turn before starting. I am off a lot. The engine ran and would accelerate at half choke only. Once the choke was opened full it would not accelerate or stay running at WOT. I believe it is too lien. I will open the high and run it again. By the way, the highest rpm at this seting was 6100. I think I can do much better when tuned. I am using a 16X8 Master Airscrew Classic. Further, the low idle would only go to 3400 rpm. Obviously I will close the low adjustment somewhat. I am shooting for 1800 rpm at idle. After I get some time with a good range of prop speed and acceleration I will remove the stock muffler (very heavy) and replace it with a Bison style muffler. This will be basically an open exhaust, maybe I'll put some steel wool in it. I will adjust the hi and low again and go to the next step- to put a four stroke plug and a good adapter in it and then try some fuel to get it to run without the glow battery. I'm thinking 4 parts gas to 1 part glow with 18% oil and 15% nitro.
