My thinking was that if the float levels were set too high, and you had it jetted to give a good plug chop, then possibly?? this may result in it running a bit rich at mid range throttle settings?? But I am just making wild guesses here.
I can't really see why an "upgrade of pipes, reed valves, rear head conversion etc." would cause excess two-stroke spooge.
Maybe you changed to a 2T oil that doesn't burn as well?
Yeah I get what you mean there, and that's what it seemed to me. I'll pull the carbs apart and check the floats when I get some time. Two stroke oil is the same as before. Castrol TTS.
Any of you guys, do you get the same thing? Oil/fuel in the end of the cans (enough to have to wipe out every session)? Maybe I'm worrying about it too much.
As for too rich, I'm sure it is conservative so you might be right. Seems odd to get a positive plug chop result though if it's too rich though right?
I need another test day!
