Hello,
I'm new to gasser and I bought a Zenoah G26 for my extra300s. I started it last friday and it runs well at full throttle to mid throttle, below that, it runs about 20 sec then stop. I tried to adjust the low needle valve without success. I screwed the low needle valve completely to see if fuel can go into engine it that condition ( it's not supposed to) and the engine is still starting then dying 15sec later.
What should I do to solve my problem,
thanks a lot for your support,
Pierre-Luc

Thanks a lot, I check the diaphragm on the carburator and it was delaminated, so I found my problem. I change it and I tach 1800 idle with Biela 16 x 8. Thanks a lot again.

Yes, I know some people with that last name, a guy with who I was studying at the National aerotechnic school in St-Hubert, Montreal. The girl at the secretary was a Cousineau too. Was your Grand father from Montreal ?
