Default A few basic problems.....

Hey,
Im trying to understand my Firestorm and tune it as best I can, but ive got no local LHS so you guys are the only help ive got!! Sorry if these are stupid questions/problems so Ill group them altogether in one thread:

1) Im geting alot of fuel leaking from somewhere out of the engine, I think from between the heatsink and engine. I did take the heatsink off the other day, I didnt notice a gasket but should I have used some sealant to seal the join? [sm=red_smile.gif]

2) I cant seem to get the brakes as sharp as I would like them. If i disconnect the link from the servo to the carb and apply the brakes they are really sharp and strong, however when the link is connected the carb stops the servo arm from rotating so much and applying the brakes as hard. Is there an adjustment I can make for this?

3) I want to re-tune the engine but dont know how to find the stock setting for the idle screw. The LSN and HSN are in the manual, but not the idle screw. Does it matter?

Thanks for helping out,

A
