  1. Sounds to me like its ready for a complete tune up, including Dist cap and wires


  2. sounds  like you  have  carb  problems  .

  3. Idle is fuel delivery or timing issue.

    Rev-up but no plane?....make sure the gearbox hasn't blown a seal and gotten water in it. You can seize the gearbox if it is leaking and it's a big power robber.

    The gearbox oil will be milky...bad...get to a tech. ASAP.
