Bonjour,

Great news, my package is already arrived, about only 3 weeks after my order 

Here it is, as received without any visible issue, a good compression at this moment and already two questions:

As I hope you can see it at 1'58", the push rod connected to the regulator shows a gap of about 3 mm with the exhaust valve, is it normal, too much (I can set it normaly)? what spacing would you recommend ?

How much should I open the carburator needle valve ?

And a little concern, no user guide, even if the previous videos has helped me to understand all the connections.
Never mind, I can't wait to test it!
