engine keeps stalling!
 
is there a reason why my engine keeps stalling. i have a dtx .18, (in an evader st) and when i take it outside to start it, i can barely start it and when i start it, it stalls, i have to keep revving it or it will stall, if i dont rev it for 2 seconds it will stall. then after i run like a tank of fuel its so easy to start it, and doesnt stall that often, but it will still stall...do i have to try messing with the idle or the low speed needle? if so which one and how much (by the way, my hsn is 2 truns out)
thanx

ps...did somebody delete the evader st thread??? i dont see it on here anymore!

RE: engine keeps stalling!
 
2 turns on the HSN might still be rich and that could be the reason for the stalling. I have my engines running a little over a turn out and they run great. But if i have it out past about a turn and a half its sluggish and stalls from it running rich. Try slowly leaning it out till you get the best setting.
