Post subject: | 99.9% Running Great |
Here's the thing folks - had to get another head for Ribena - all done and all that sort of thing - the little beast will scoot along at about 130 kph with very little hassle. Not bad for a 998 with extractors imho ![]() Anyway, curiosity has the better of me coz there's always room for improvment - no matter what you do - how do I tell if it's running too lean or too rich??? And to fix it, I adjust the main jet underneath my single stock standard carby - screw it in by one flat at a time to make it less rich. Is this correct???? Cheers P.S. Do you like the new wheel trims - have a look in the photobucket under "Wheel Trims" - hmmm.......Obvious name for it Rod |

In the interests of not cooking your new head, I recommend you get the Mini to someone who knows SUs ASAP.... Or someone with a sensor to poke up its little exhaust...or the Docs air/fuel meter!! if you don't know what youre doing...you could lean it out and risk damaging an expensive hunk of iron ![]() ![]() |

If it's not running too hot, then it's not running too lean. Pete has one of those things ya stick up ya exhaust. Lyndsey was in there adjusting his a coupla weeks ago. PS - wheel trims looking great! |

I wouldn't rely on the engine getting hot to tell you it's too lean. Trust me, NAV was running in the 16/17 bracket for air fuel ratio, he wasn't getting hot at all. Tis all good now he has a custom needle formerly an ABX but now it's A?? but he goes good now thanks to roy goodman |
