Hi Marcelo,
Without knowing your setup detail, I will suggest the following. First try an OSF with OSA5 plug. If that does not work, lean the low-end out.

RE: 3M-170
Hello!
I have experienced somewhat the same on my 3M-140. It started quite well and ran on idle, but i couldnt get it to the top end of the throttle-register; it was running way to much out on the needle. But when flying, it seemed to run lean. I then replaced with an OS F and an OS A5-plug, and things smoothed out.
