not only desmogged .. i have a drip to the intake manifold ,, design was for MMO[mystery marvel oil ] but i have a soup of nitromethane methenol and castor oil in there.. apparent difference is now unable to set time by *ear* ..
unable to detect ping on advance .. using previously proved methodology advanced to 60 degrees Before top dead center [BTDC] hummwho would have thought an ICE would start with 60 BTDC much less do a road run..
my target EGT is [as advised by race engine builder waldrop @ acme speed shop.com ] is 1250 .. sensor is one inch from the head ..
last i leaned 3 flats [half turn]
i want to get a lean adjust screw with a shaft brazed on it ,, attach a torque tube to it , route to cabin and adjust mixture +on the Fly+ ..
im worried about tuning mix too lean and burning holes in my head ..
am i correct in thinking that monitoring of the EGT will prevent that ?
i am approaching 30 MPG with a 60's technology 1800 CC analogue system
that w/o applying my FE driver technique ..[ie: stuffing foot to footfeed and running up to 5G RPM [90mph] is NOT condusive to FE ..
when stabilized and start trials ...
what kind of FE does modern 1800 CC equipment provide? vs my 60's technology
