Default Tower Hobbies .75 help tunning

Hello guys,

I have a tower hobbies .75 and I can not get it to do a whole flight without shuting off in mid flight. So far I was able to proof that it was not the fuel tank. I have an Phoneix model Extra 330. I have a problem with the idle needle. I do not know the number of turns that it takes to set it to factory. So far what I have is in the Idle mix I have it a 4 turns out from close with the carb wide open. This is the only setting where i was able to turn on the engine and the engine was able to hold the idle but it is not smooth. If I close it 1/8 like the instructions say the engine will die after a few seconds of idelng I have the High mix at 2 1/2 turns out from close, and it is the same thing. The high is not smooth and I hear the engine getting Reach and Lean with out moving the throtle. If I close it 1/8 to 1/4 of a turn it dies after like 30 second. This is a replacement engine from TH and it has a brand new piston and slave. I used 1/2 gallon on the break in. I hope that you guys can help me.

Thank you in advanced
Carlos
