Default New engine and tank location questions

Got the tt pro 46 started yesterday but it wouldn't go above 1/4 throttle without cutting out. I lowered the angle on the fuel inlet down ward to take a rise out of the fuel line and it will now go full throttle on demand. It seems to not want to idle easily now. I have not put even a half tank of fuel through it yet, and the tank outlet is about 1-1.5 inches below the carb fuel inlet. Is this too much? I am not sure if the idle needle is just very rich or if it is not pushing the fuel up like it should. I don't see a way to get the motor lower than what it is already in the world models mark 1 arf. I thought that maybe the idle is just too low, I am running it on the cradle so I am not sure if the idle could come up without her rolling off. I tried my best to find a thread with the tank/engine diagrams but couldn't so any help is definitely appreciated. I am sure I will start many more threads before I get this thing completely worked out. Thanks!
