I've heard that its all about engines in the 8th game so would like to know any little tip, tricks and maybe secrets to get the most out of one. Also what other advice can i steal from the people in the know. As im an 8th virgin!!

Thanks in advance

Dan, I am in the same boat as you, leave the carb settings alone, run the bugger in, get used to how it likes being started, and then slowly adjust settings. I got told that it should idle for about 5 secs before it wants to bog down on pull off, and a nice trail of smoke at revs.
