    Bingo. That’s exactly what I did on my ’29 Folding N.

    Tubs,

    I watched your N video as well. I had the exact same issues yours did after running for awhile. Fuel gets hot, doesn’t run good. I manufactured a small heat shield that goes between the tank and muffler. Runs much longer (1 hr trolling), without leaning out or dying.

    Mine had the pistons installed upside down… that was a shock when I opened it up
