Default XTM Nitro X-Cellerator ST

I bought an X-Cellerator on Saturday and I didn't even have in running yet and the pull start string broke. I'm going to get it replaced by my LHS. I got a few questions.

-Can you give me the three pin settings that worked for your X-cellerator when first starting it up?(XTM .18)

-Can flourescent lights give off electricity that can inturrupt the radio signal?(AM)

-Have any top speeds for me?

-Any tips about startup and break in?[&:]

the x-c has a very thin pull start string compared to other engines but you probably pulled it out to far and broke it as for breaking it in and needle settings just go by what the manual says and about the top speed if you want to know what the top speed on the x-c is its around 50 mph

Also, stock is very rich, so it may have flooded and you pulled a starter with liquid in the cylinder... liquids are non compressible.

Yea the xc is a pain to prime and start, once you break it in it might be easier for you, i went and got a Roto starter and its much easier now.

Yea I got a new pullstart and i got it started, it runs great, i have the hi speed at 2.25 turns and it rips, i ran it up and down my front street and i was amazed with the speed i got. How low can i put the high speed needle while still keeping it safe and not being to hard on my motor?

Until is sounds right.
I got the one tooth larger spur gear, and it flies.
Topend is slower, but it rips and will wheelie with the slightest imperfection in the road. I think I could go a little leaner, its still a little rough at idle.

I found out to get it to idle better, mess with your LSN a little, i think i richened my 1/8 of a turn and it idles much better now. and of course your idle screw.
