Sorry, no winner yet. I had some trouble at the lake, but I am sure you guys can help me figure it out.
Had to jump it becuase the battery was dead. Once I had the cables on it fired immediatly (better than stock actually). Reved nice and sounded great. I was pretty amped and ready to run her.
Got on the lake, threw the throttle down about a 2/3 and she hesitated, then slowly came out of the hole. The problem though, is that is was bogging bad. Just felt and sounded wrong. I got her up to 3000 RPM's and let her run for a few minutes. I then went wide open and she just wouldn't go. Bogged down and started slowing down. I backed off then slowly increased the thottle little bits at a time. She would bog, then catch up and run fine at that RPM. Went like this to WOT and she was running 52.2 on the GPS at 4300 (56 on the speedo) and she was still climbing very very slowly wheh I decided to back off so I wouldn't do any damage hopefully.
She would also bog in a turn just running mid range throttle. I was so pissed. All that work:mad:
Put her on the trailer, popped the hatch to turn off the battery and could smell a little fuel.
I am thinking she needs to be re-jetted. I left the carb stock but she just feels rich. No black smoke or unburned fuel when running and would rev in nuetral without bogging. Had two freinds with me and the first run was solo, but next was with the two friends and the bogging seemed a little worse with the weight. Oil Pressure was great, never ran above 255 temp.
Any help would be much appreciate. Maybe I will make the 6 pack a case.:bonk:
