i know one guy who burnt a piston because of a fuel system not up to the task,but i knew why it happened,remember that ride joe?

I do! It was a fun ride until that happened. Well, actually, it still was fun after it happened. We had a long idle back, and fortunately, we had cold beers on board !

Thanks for the pointers guys. I was hoping I would find that my left motor was not advenced enough. But it's the same as the right side. The left side doesn't run as strong. I don't know why. I've gotta figure that out.

Great info I run 36 degrees total until I get into the boost. At full boost I am at 30 degrees.
