Sweet. Let us know how it goes, dude. Feel free to PM me if you have anymore questions.

You will be noticing some performance gains once she is tuned. Have fun!

I'm throwing this POS in the pond.......I'm done

Ive been where you are... let us know what happened and we can get it running... I threatened to throw my MT in the Carribean, but now it purrs like a kitten (ok, a Tiger).

 

[clydebarrow]

Now it seems it wants to bog out ........I should prolly go back to factory settings and start from there but If it does it again it might end up in the pond.......I knew I should have bought a ps3 instead

 

[Guantanamo Joe]

PS3 is great... but I play with my trucks more than I play my PS3.

Thy those factory settings, tune the needle closest to the engine first- turning ever so slightly until the engine revs up... then drive it around hard for a minute.

After your fast run, tune the needle closest to the air filter by turning it about 1/16th of a turn, then doing a hard run down the street and back... continue this until you see that it is not not performing any better.

Good luck with it... let us know how it goes...

you have it to lean now, just richen it a little.

Probably the lousy carb syndrom...

Yank the carb and toss on a 990 and she'll run the way you want it to.

What color is your plug? That'll tell you how you're engine is running, and then you can determine how to adjust it. Post a pic if you can.

 

[clydebarrow]

I think I'm gonna order the 990 and a vent kit and go from there........I'll just throw money at it till it runs right or the wife hides it

 

[Deluge]

Lol! Right on! Let us know how it works out.

 

[clydebarrow]

ordered the 990 and fuel vent kit with the fittings.........even used the wife's credit card (I must have been a good boy) at least now there will be a reason to check the mail

 

[Deluge]

Sweet. It's fun ordering stuff, but the wait is killer!

Let us know how it goes.

I got a confirmation email from ddm for my vent kit but not from gizmotors for my 990 I hope it sends or I'm gonna be one cranky mofo

Gizmo takes a day or two... and probably doesn't respond on the weekends. I got mine in Cuba in a little over 2 weeks, so I am sure you will get it pretty quick.
