Thanks John. The problem is that it's running too rich. The person i have work on it told me i could fix it by doing something similar to what you suggested. I'll probably give him a call and get more detailed instructions. I have to give it a little gas to get it going then keep it reving for a bit and then after it warms up it runs and idles fine. I read something about if it runs too rich and there isn't enough oxygen it won't ignite properly, also running too rich may have hurt the spark plugs, i'll check that too. Thanks for the help. I'll check out that section of the website too. --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "John Hervey" <john@...> wrote: > > David, Ok, Then don't adjust for wear.
