need some help, think my fuel psi is to high, she washes out the plugs, i mean like swimmin in fuel. talked to Dave at Sea-way in the book for F3 carbs fuel psi
is 2.5-5.5psi . the jets are not to rich, don't seem like she can handle that kinda psi. any body got the float hight for the 1" 2bbls 19s FT carbs?
thanks
FF


did get it to Turn On a Bit, once or twice, ya FT tiller you so gots to get some

[Fast Fred]

ok, on the dyno they said some thing about they was pushing the fuel,thinkin the pump they was runnin did not have enough volume to feed it, so they moved the floats on thses carbs, ya i remember them sayin that. made a float adjustment,

sounds like ya got the wrong reglator it took me awhile to find one that went down to 0 and back up a bit.you might also look at the float drop and not just the height but hek im not tell you any thing you dont know Phantom fred!!!!!! no top o again FOS!!!

[Fast Fred]

i was tryin, took the time off, it wasn't comin together on a co-pilot. see about workin the co-pilot thing out now, next year think the Deanster will be lookin to run his new hull too at the Top O'. so tell me how did it go, Who won, Who Roasted

i remember Mr W. sayin that he was pushing the fuel and that they moved the floats. think that he did not have enough volume on the pump he was runnin,??

Do you have a photo of a stock cyl head and a Mod 50?
Some of the photos of the pistons in earlier posts are flat top and some have a slight dome, were the heads altered to suit this?
