Teflon tape on the threads or a short peive of fuel line over the threaded portion.  Make sure spray bar hole is in correct position.  Have fun,  DOC Holliday

It does take some time to break in the Fox15 since it is an iron piston/steel sleeve. Maybe that is the problem.

Mine are all sweet running engines.

I've seen this needle sensitivity problem with too little oil in the fuel.  Make sure you are running at least 20% oil.  All castor is preferred as this is an iron piston engine.
