The last couple of times out try as I may I could not get over 60, being an old boat mech I have a good ear but could not hear anything in the engine but did not stay at WOT for more then 20-30 seconds damn glad I did not. Well checked timing any plug color all looked fine, pulled the fuel filters forwad tank had a little crap and a tea spoon of water the aft tank was crystal but had a small aluminum shaving in it. Knowing that was a poor sign I pulled the tank pickup to find the anti syphon valve had a tiny peice of crap keeping it from moving. Preface was turning 65 flat with the cleaver and 65.7 with the Turbo, Ya Ya slow remember this is a SB in a 22. Anyway three on board full aft tank 10 gallons in the forward tank I got 64. 3, can't wait to slap the Turbo back on and do a solo run damn might hit 66.
