Stupid engine lol

Well, hey...

When i take off, the car just shuts off. I tried richening and leaning and its not working lol. I check and the line from tank to exhaust was out, i put it back on and still no help. The glow plug lights up from the back and the tip is pretty dull.

Could a bag glow plug cause the engine to stall while accelerating.
This is at 225 temp f.

Oo phew lmao, i guess im going to set it to base first.

But my glow plugs lifes is dieing and i dont wanna tune the engine and have the plug die after a few runs. I guess ill just tune whenever needed, wait for the plug to die and then resest the whole engine.

What bothers me is that, isnt the base going to be awkward now that the engine is all ran through and used. Just wondering.
