Does it rev past 5.5k, or up to this OK and then get nasty?
does it do it in all gears and at all speeds?
What carb settings have you got?

Yeah it made a noise like a tractor and broke the casing.trademe900 wrote:Sorry to hear about your mistake with the tissues man. Did you lose a rod through the engine casings? Shit that must have made a noise eh? Did the oil pressure light not come on?
Are you running all stock induction (air filter, snorkel, rubber flap etc) ? If you can man, get your carbs apart and tell us what is in there- main jet sizes, washers under the needles and float heights. You never know what you'll find in there...

Re: Running probs
To be completely honest im just a have a go kinda guy and dont really know what im talking about when it comes to carbs and jet sizes. Would it be simple to find out if i start taking it all apart or am i best off using a mechanic!!

Re: Running probs
I would say have a go yourself, better to know the how things work
I would suggest that you go back to standard, standard filter jets and flap and pilot settings. this should solve any issues with the carbs.
