Default STS.28 tuning difficulties

i cannot keep the temps down on my sts.28. it rises to about 310-320 and then dies. i have richened it out a lot and that doesnt help besides messing up the performance. i have also sealed the carb and backplate with epoxy.
any ideas?[&:]

Default RE: STS.28 tuning difficulties

how many shims are you running on the cooling head? check them, you should have 4mm. check for air leaks. reset needles to stock and richen a little bit more, run it as rich as you can and see what the temps are. replace your glow plug for a different one even different brand.
