</SPAN></FONT><FONT SIZE="4"><FONT FACE="Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:13.0px'>I am still having problems getting my YS120AC to run properly, even after putting in a new piston and ring.<BR>

</SPAN></FONT><FONT SIZE="4"><FONT FACE="Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:13.0px'>The engine seems to idle okay, but is sluggish to pick up revs, even after adjusting the needle. I have replaced the regulator plunger and ring and fuel line, but no improvement. It also smokes a lot in my opinion. Have you got any ideas! <BR>

If the regulator is set correctly, usually flush with the case, and the rest of the system is clean then I would look at the fuel. I ran YS 20/20 for years with no problems in my 91, 120SC, and my 140. If it is not readily available some fuel distributors will mix fuel for YS specs if you ask. It ran about $25.00 a gallon. Try it out.<BR>
