Holey ****;

Don't say the OIL SEAL. To new for that problem!!!

I'm running OMP, and I set it up to Factory Specks, something like 2.5cc@6mins at 2000rpm.



Although RB suggest (5cc@5mins at 2000rpm while holding the arm up in the full throttle position with a piece of string while testing on ther Holley setup???

I thought maybe this could be the problem. Whose right on this one???

I thouhgt I was going to have time to remove the Carbie and send it back today, but I can't do it till the weekend. In the meantime I'm going to check the flow on the OMP.



Quit sending me your Gremlins :bigok:

I like Canada. Been ther 5 times in the last 8 years and your all nice People's and Great Brew Too.

Thanks

steve

P.S. Got Clutch :smirk:

I would trust RB.You can't run too much oil on these cars.Just means less chance of it siezing on you.Why would it do it on high rpms tho?

Cool; Luis

Lock your RX doors so nobody can **** with your Clutch again. Victory feels good even though it may take aaaallllloooottttt more work than it's supposed too.

Now you have time to work on your other 10 million projects.



I'm gonna spend 1/2 today on my Disti. I put in new plugs and within 50 miles they where Black. Not Good. 3rd set in 750 miles @ $6.99ea. Talk about a wallet buster.

Removing the RB Carb when I get done and hopefully when I get it back it will work right.

Have a good one

steve

If your plugs are black then your carb is your main problem right now.Talk about running rich.Thats not good.Even on a 12a.

You shouldn't have to go out and buy new spark plugs. Cant you just clean them? Bit of fuel, wire brush, fine sandpaper??

That only works so long. :rant: I know that from experience.Once they get cleaned to many times your engine will flood very easily.I just went and ordered a set.It makes starting so much easier.

Well after putting in new plugs(Again),re-timming(Again),re-setting carb(Again), drove it for 3 miles ran like ****. Pulled the plugs SOLID BLACK and Reaked of GAS.

Pulled the Carb, took it to the post office to mail back to RB. The clerk refused to take the box cause she could smell gas. I emptied the ****** bone dry. Now what???

Gonna call RB this AM to see what they suggest to get it back to them.

Man I'm getting tired of this ongoing Bullshit!!!

See Ya's
