Mintor Here...

[V Bortone]

I agree.  I have the Mintor 140 and is running extremely well.  I still 
learning to use the engine.  I know that if I peak the engine on ground 
that setting would be to lean in the air.  I think that the best 
setting is to peak and open almost 1/4 turn.  Don't be afraid of trying 
KB-1L glow plugs.  You will be surprised.
