  4. Better that way right? My understanding is that running rich will aid cooling?
    Wilf at MotoRapido set it up. And I think he knows his onions.

  5. The interesting thing is there was no noticeable power loss. Just an intermittent misfire.... and was told a puff of smoke.

  8. maybe excess oil coming through before the end? Isn't this your second piston fail Mary or am I thinking of someone else?

  10. Yeah, oil coming through the crack/ rings. Bet the other piston is clean.
