My DL was exactly the same as yours when i frist started it. I thought I had a problem with my tank / plumbing, as the motor would run off the choke for a few seconds then die..However....I richened the LSN by about 1/16 of a turn and it ran for a little longer, allowing me to open the throttle a little and the motor kept running.

During this first tank the motor was kept as about 1/4 throttle and just got better and better, until i was so confident that the second tank was spent flying my EF around...i got that carried away though, i forgot to set my timer and ran out of gas!! No damage to the aircraft..just a little embarressing!

My DL does seem a little thirsty though.....it emptied a 20 oz tank in around 12 minutes, are you guys seeing this level of fuel consumption too?

PS: Perfect prop for this engine is a mejzlik 23 x 8...awesome!!! currently turning 7100 on 40:1, pulling my 88 yak around like crazy, hovers on 1/3 throttle

Cheers
