Default EVOLUTION .46 engine mounting?

I have a question, I'm not new to flying just glow engines. I have a vq p51 with a EVOLUTION .46 on it I mounted the engine to fit in the cowl at about a 45 degree angle. Is this right? the engine on first flight cut out due too the carb falling off, yeah I learned my lesson about tightening screws on a glow plane! After putting the plane back together I flew one flight ran great. then the thing started to die mid cycle again. does this engine have to be mounted some way in relation to the gas tank? I read the manual and it is pretty much useless for mounting instructions.
