Bonjour Benny,
Well done, I also suffered a bit before beaing to start mine  ;)
I note that your switch button has not the same direction(?) and mostly your engine is musch faster than mine :
 Yes, the initial mixture settings did indeed cause mine to run similar to yours. After a little tuning, and running 3 tanks of fuel (Coleman white gas, Marvel oil 50:1), I thought it ran better and had better throttle response with a bit richer mixture.

I see no smoke on your video, did you add a drop of oil in your gasoline ?

There is smoke, I think it is just the lighting.

And Jin's answer to your idea :


I like the little Volkswagen. I'm thinking maybe speedboat, if I can find a suitable hull
