| need to warm it up every time dude, if shes cool. ps. get a full stainless straight through. the rip out the end when u plant it is as good as the tickling from the carbs. what webers they 40 or 45? what feul pump you using? recommed facet redtop ( www.peterlloydrallying.co.uk) before getting set up as it really does make a difference.
lose the socks and it sounds/ runs better as well. ppl say its bad for the engine and that but i live/ work on a farm and my engine still running fine without filters. |
