Other than that lean the mixture in 1/4 turn increments untill it runs.
I dont mind having a look for you if need be... you can always call me if i can help in any way
Finished making a rolling road today for 1/8 trucks, should make tuning a lot easier
Though got caught by the site manager sneaking it out to my van
he was more concerned I used the office main door to get to my van rather than using the main gate!!

The easiest way would be to put a dynamo on the rollers with a voltmeter.
The R/R is basically a quick lash up done for one reason, tuning engines, converting it probably would be impractical.
The size of the rollers are 18 inches wide and 13.5 inches between the wheel centres(forward and back), it was made for Savages, but if anyone wants to use it for their car (Off road only due to the pitch of the rollers) and these dimensions are no good, let me know and I'll redrill the frame accordingly

I think this should do that with the capability of going off road as well, definately will be getting a started box got to make it as easy as possible to start.

Just attended to start it again, no joy but was defo closer than usual...
There is fuel @ the carb when primed by blocking the exhausrt BUT dont seem much when just trying to start it.
have just taken the exhaust off and poured the residue oil out
there was loads. Just waiting for the EZ starter to cool a bit while charging the battery again and will try again....
