Default RE: Macstar 28?

I used the info from zjwhitlock and it was running but no power what so ever at those settings from the ofna site.I called a ofna tech and he told me where to set everything at so I did and tried it yesterday [:@].This carb is a total pos[:'(]I have tried everything with this motor with little sucess.I was aiming for decent temps with decent power and I'm getting good temps with absolutly no power,my other 28's will run circles around this thing and hold good tune.Well I got pissed and decided it was gonna run like I wanted or it was gonna grenade one or the other was gonna happen.After some more tuning, I got it to run pretty good.I ran the whole tank with no issues and it was running like it should had great power all the way through the rpm's.It ran out of gas so I checked the temp and it was right at 300[&o].I'm gonna run it some more today and see how it goes.This carb is one finiky sob thats for sure,Iv'e never had a problem tuning till I bought this soon to be paperweight if I can't get temps down.

Rican my other carbs are to small and won't work.I think I will be looking for another motor soon since this one won't last long at these temps.
