did you check the float level?

Also try 1.5 turns out on the first screws,

Check the choke is not sticking open

Inspect the inlet rubbers

Hi al22!

Maybe checking the valve clearances might also help - as surely would the use of punctuation in your text (i.e. for improved readability, not for improved running of your TRX) ...

Proposing greets from Munich!
