Jester241, Your the winner!
I was, I mean, my friend was flipping it the wrong way...
I looked at the prop and said to myself, YOUR AN IDIOT!

Thanks for pointing out the obvious...


Once I got it primed it started right up.
I backed it out from 2.5 to 5 turns then it sounded like it was starting what they are refering to as 4 cycling? a rough sound so I turned it in 1 turn. it sped up and smoothed out a bit but was still very rich? I left it at 4 turns.
I varied from 3/4 to WOT for the whole tank. It was rich, a ton of fuel was coming out the exhast. It definatly wasnt running at peak rpm...

I let it sit 10 min before the 2nd tank. near the end of the 2nd tank I turned in the needle till it was screaming and pointed the plane straight up. the rpm stayed right there... Dont know what that means yet but I read they do that...
I was concentrating on getting it started first, now what will tell me that I'm ready for flight? as far as the engine goes that is.

I still have to install the ailerons and a few more control surface adjustments...




Thanks to all
