Default RE: wont stay idled

could be lots of things
yes, it could be that cracked tank
it could be the idle stop screw
or the throttle linkage
or the trim setting on the transmitter
or the lsn to rich
or too lean
or a mis-adjusted hsn
or sticking/dragging clutch shoes
or a weak glow plug
or, well, that's about all i can
think of off the top of my head
