    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

She started! But she's angry!

Ohhh I see. Yeah I'm able to elevate my tank enough to get access to the screws without removing the fuel and vacuum lines, so that should be just fine :) Thanks for the info!


Anyone else know if the best RPM method should be before or after the synch? I'll be working on that this weekend.
 
If you know the procedure then you can do any cylinder in any order. Just after each one lower the idle so you can better guage the rpms rising.
 
I'm still at the recommended settings by V&H (or was it dynojet?) but I'm strongly considering rejetting it again... I just need to prove the problem I have first ;)
 
Errr. Edit above... I suspected that it would be due to a "richer" condition given the backfiring & flames coming from the pipe... but apparently the gold and blue are typical of a lean condition? Could anyone lend some advice?

Popping and banging and flames in the pipe especially on engine braking is caused by unburnt fuel being reignited during an exhaust stroke. These things spark every stroke because the timing is picked up from the crank. Unburnt fuel in the pipe usually means either there was too much (rich) or incorrectly ignited (poor ignition or timing or compression) fuel remaining after a normal cycle.
