    Thank you so much for continued ideas. I did check the inlet and the anti-siphon. The thing is I do not have hesitation or waivering like the fuel pressure is too low or getting held back.. I will try it more times. In the mean time I have lower pitched prop (15p instead of 17p) that arrives...
