				Hi Gang
   
    My engine idles smoother when the  idle r.p.m. is a little on the high side.
   
   I get away with this because I put a rubber  band around the brake handle when I start it ( pull start )
   
   Although it almost got away from me one time  when I started  it on ice with skiis on, luckily it didn't  !!! 
   
  Check out this youtube ..... the pilot must have  started the plane full throttle....or there must have been a mechanical  problem.
