    Thanks everyone for the info. The 98 octane is not an E fuel its just pump gas over here in australia.

    Yikes! That sucker is really running lean. At least there's no aluminum flakes on the plug ceramic.

    mercguy - I PM'd you but no response not sure if there is a problem with messages or not.

    Can you tell me more about the M50's that you build? are you using stock fuel pumps still, a few guys a changing to 3cyl jetski ones. Do you always use standard 135 mains?

    Im using NGK BR8HIX iridium plugs. heat rating of 8.

    1.2mm off the head or nearly 50thou

    What revs are you achieving out of your motors?

    any advise would be great.

    feels like its surging slightly with lower pitch props above 6800
