Having an idleing issue now after i got it broken in. It start up will not stay running. I have to set the ldle hight, or keep giving it gas. How can I set the idle or how can I tell it right.

Sound like it just needs a little tuning. ;)

try adjusting the low speed needle. Probably try leaning it out a little (1/8 turn at a time) and see if the idle speeds up. If so, keep leaning the low speed and turning out the idle until idle is smooth and the engine is responsive from the line.

There should not be pressure or vacuum in the tank. If you hear the hiss when you open the cap you need to vent the tank.
