New Mitsubishi motor won't stay running

I guess you received a lemon. My Mits always starts on the second pull, with choke on and bulb primed. It takes a few minutes to warm up, then it's good to go.
 
New engine & for sale

Good news.
Staton sent me a whole new engine, for no cost, and it runs great (so far). :D

I've run it 3 times so far, for about 10-25 minutes a time, and it hasn't skipped a beat yet.

However, I'm finding that I like riding my bike better without the engine!
It's a great setup, fast, and seems bulletproof. But my buddy is selling his very nice road bike for a deal, and I just like to pedal I guess. :)

So I'm probably going to list it in the for sale section. It hasn't even had 1 tank-full run through it yet.
1.25 roller on the TLE43 motor.
I'm asking $425 shipped.
So if you know of anyone looking for a near-new friction setup, send them my way.
Thank you all for your help.

Randy
