tighten the plug....and your HSN is waaaaaaay to lean, u hit full throttle and the engine lean bogs so bad it dies

[Meatwad]

thats just it the plug is tight. anybody got tuning specs for this engine?
and arent OS plugs longer

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

os plugs are shorter, just tune it for smoke richen up the top end a turn atleast and just go from there, do the pinch test for the lsn should take like 5 seconds or so to rev up and kill

Meatwad one thing I have found is that the manual is sometimes a little off. Like with my Hyper .21 it is too rich according to the manual and I must lean it out some to keep it running good, but with yours it might be the opposite thing and you need to richen it a little more than the manual states. Just a thought... let me know if it works

On my motors to tune them out pretty good. I usually just richen the top end and lsn about 1-1 1/2 turns then start it. It will usually run like crap then die, I start to lean it out a tad until I can get some speed on it. Then get the engine warmed up then start tuning. Usually results in a nice tune with minimal effort, and no temp gun. Good smoke and power.

Basicly just start over rich where it won't clear out at all, warm it up a bit, then start to lean it out a bit at a time, HSN First, then LSN and Idle.

Those are just the stock settings. Doesn't mean the engine will run with those settings.

might have dirt around the seal. probably take the head off and clean the the area where the plug rests.

[rocco79]

Fill the motor with simple green and throw it on your stater box.... That should remove any dirt from the motor....

[Meatwad]

yeah its leaking cause im running the wrong plug.
