Default RE: DL-50 engine

I re-tuned my DL50 this morning, out at the field. It is probably not fully run in yet and last time I adjusted it got it too lean thenI was too heavy handed fixing that and ended up too rich on the low end. Now perfect BUT it threatens to die whenever I roll the plane. This happened to me a couple of weeks before as well. It sounds like it is going rich, and if I try multiple rolls - well I chicken out before it actually dies.

Loops, dives, verticals are all fine; it isjust rolls that give the problem. Any ideas guys?
