well i went out today to try and get in some run time with the car and it was running good before today so i try to tune it and it progressively gets worse and now i go full throttle and its doin 10mph most and its sputterin down the road...i cant figure out how to tune it im on the verge of throwin it as far as i can.
some one please help me out i wanna get this thing running like it use to i cant seem to get anything right.
ive already done the factory setting thing with 4 turns out with the HSN and im not sure what the LSN is suppose to be (as in turns out) but someone help me please

Turn your hsn in till it hit's the seat.Turn it back out to 2 3/4 to 3.Make sure your lsn is flush with collar and try it.It should be pretty close.Any more than 3 1/4 is to rich.Might wanna throw a new glow plug in aswell.Also make sure your air filter is clean and not overly oiled.To much oil on your filter will make it rich.Good luck and keep us posted on your results.
