Just got my engine up and running and when it comes off choke the afr gauge sits on lean?

im sure this isnt right... can anyone confirm what their gauge does on idle off choke??


please.. :D

I also have an odd idle, the few times i started it before getting the exhaust fitted it idled sweet.. after afew laps of my local airfield it sounds like this... plugs are just the right colour and fuling is fine when driving.

i know i know, but they just help keep an eye on things dont they. ie if it goes lean on full throttle or something...

no ideas about the idle then?

Well i found the problem, after a poke around to make sure everything was plugged in and tight etc, i noticed i had not connected the tank vent valve pipe from the Carbon canister thingy...

idles sweet now and afr gauge hunts as it should do.
