The needles on a glow carb are not going to be very good for gasoline fuel. Chances are the mid range will get rich. Some carbs are worse than others. Any carb designed for high nitro will be worse in this regard.
True but, this carb seems to handle it very well. The midrange seems to hold very well without getting rich. Its actually flight ready IMO. But Im waiting for the pipe.
The glow carb throat is 9.45mm or close to it. The walbro Im thinking to buy has the same throat dimensions so it seems I got it pretty close with the glow carb.
Deathbunny_SG; I got no actual reason for putting a walbro upfront as the glow carb seems to handle it really well. But I can get the proper walbro conversion parts for about 70USD. The cline regulator is about 60USD if I remember right. I'd prefer the proper walbro carb over a cline. The alternative I thought about was a perry gas pump/reg., but again I want to do a proper gas conversion for the engine, thus the walbro carb.
I will order the conversion parts today - and hopefully soon I will have a very reliable and powerful 26cc gas engine.
