NEEDLE-VALVE EXTENSION
The needle-valve supplied with this engine is
designed to incorporate an extension so that,
when the engine is enclosed within the
fuselage, the needle-valve may be adjusted
from the outside. For this purpose a Needle
Valve Extension Cable Set is supplied with the
engine. If a longer extension is reguired, cut a
commercially available rod to the required
length, bend one end to an L shape, insert it
into needle's center hole and secure it by
tightening the set-screw in the needle-valve
knob with 1.5mm Allen key.
