Brian,
Could be a few diffrent issues such as slack exhaust, clutch slipping, warped blades, incorrect pitch etc.
A good site for this type of info is;
http://www.raptortechnique.com/
Cheers,
Graeme. |

If its a new engine the problem will be its to rich on the needles. You will need to lean the engine a bit. |
