    what are you taking temps with?...because, whenever any of my rc's stall at high speeds its too lean on the high speed needle....go back to stock needle settings and see if it still stalls

    If it is stalling out either way to rich or alittle lean.
    But your temps are ok so it should not be lean but I would try to richen the HSN about 1/8 turn and go from there.

    I would say he is too lean if he is stalling out at high-speed. If it stalls at low speed, than it is too rich.
