I run a little over 10 minutes with a .15 engine and a 80cc fuel tank.

thats fine then. No need to worry about short run time. This isnt electric, you can refuel your car.

hey,
Ever since I installed my wasp it got such long run times compared to my .15fe. Im running it on the rich side too. Not saying its a bad thing but it makes me a little worried that I may be running it lean when its really not.
