What issues are you having with yours? oddly enough, I am just setting mine up in a plane, couldn't get it to run right, tore the carb apart and went through it, finally changed the needles and now it runs strong....

I can't get it to pull fuel.
Just installed it and wanted to check the settings

What did you have to set the needles to?

[gkm41]

not entirely sure now, with the different needles, I started at about 2 turns and turned them in,,, ya, when dry, will only suck with the choke on and throttle opened.... I went through the carb and made sure it was set properly, I had issues with not sucking fuel at first, change out the tubing for the crank case vent and the fuel pump gasket wasn't blocking the holes in the carb like it should have. I replaced that and sucks fuel now...
Oh and there are tiny o-rings on the needles, make sure they seal or it might suck air and not draw fuel.... only other issue mine has is the threads on the end of the crankshaft for the prop nut are cut a little crude. But, engine runs fine now... I am just breaking it in, haven't flown mine yet. I have the 26cc SV as well and like that one.
