You must have your mixture set with more fuel than you think? Need to try adjusting the needle valve again?

Enjoy,

Jim

What fuel and prop are you using and what rpm are you getting? What size is the engine?

My Y-S 91 makes more smoke than my Saito 91.

Enjoy

My .91 YS smokes like mad too. As long as the engine is running correctly, I
wouldn't worry too much about the smoke. The high speed needle need not be
richened as much as a regular engine for flight. The fuel pressure, and the fuel
mixture holds truer than a non-pumped engine.

FBD.
