Hey guys, need more advice.

I got it running today and did some messing while on the table. I keep getting bubbles in my fuel line, wondering if this is why it doesn't idle. After that, once it gets warmed up by fluttering the trottle I can run a bit. It didn't really want to take off with a quck blast on the throttle, more of a slow accel that worked best.

I know I need to do more tuning, but ideas on getting it to idle i think are what I need at the moment. I also messed with the idle screw but had no results from turning it either direction.
