<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I agree with Ed White It sounds like a air

<DIV>Hmmmm . . . . . . you have put all the right parts in and
assuming the rest of the engine is sound. . . . . my guess
is an air leak. The low end needle on my conversions is usually about 3/4
turn out from closed. Did you replace the gaskets?<BR><BR><B><I>Ed White

need some advice. I've converted my YS 140 FZ to an<BR>L. New crank, crank

looses rpm until it<BR>dies. In the air if it doesn't have the very
