Default engine settings os.61abc

I have an os .61 abc that ran like a clock,not anymore.I put it on my funtana for 3d but can't trust it at all .Seems to sputter after running at near idle for awhile.I don;t have the manual and was wondering what factory settings were.Any ideas would be appreciated.I am using 10% fuel ,new glow plugs,tried different fuels"other members".It starts fine but sputters after running fora short time then dies.

Thanks "rayb ".Actually took the engine apart and may have found the culprit.The inside liner or pinton wall seems to be coated with a silver material.The material seems to be chipping away for some reason,kinda like peeling paint.Looks like it may be finished.Like to know for sure though.

Sputnik,
The instructions I have are for the OS 7M type carb.
High speed needle out 2 1/2 to 3 turns
Mid-range control screw out 2 turns counter-clockwise
Idle mixture control screw at midway between full lean and full rich.
Hope your engine is just out of adjustment and not damaged.
Good luck.
Ray
