Dion,

You better richen up the mixture more,if you launch it and it dies you are

still too lean. I would guess the carb should open aprox.3 turns out to start.

If you still have trouble, get a good after-market carb like a Geraghty .290".

This will make that CMB LS-21 sing.

Have Fun,

Sent you a PM Dion. I remember this same problem happening after I flipped the tunny. ended up being a split fuel pressure line. I still make the same mistake today of not checking them when i have a problem and its always too late when I do find it.

Dion,

If you have the stock carb on it, block off the needle end and go to a remote needle. It'll save you long days of headaches!
