    IF the idle is 2.8%co then that is about 13.4:1 afr--it's ok but would be a better, more stable idle into the high/mid 12's

  • William Revit16 August 2026

    Looks like he's on around(average)5.5%-6% co on full load so that's on the money--roughly 12.5:1 afr but down the bottom of the list he's settled on 0.972%co (14.4 afr) for something--IF that's idle mixture it's way too lean, and if it's light throttle cruise it's borderline.
    In all fairness it looks like he knows what he's up to testing and recording---He'll fix it, but yeah probably just a i...

    Bill,
    You are getting the not secure message because of who ever runs this, and probably the whole enthusiasts site, has not renewed the security certificate for the site. This I believe has to be done every year.

    Are you using an alloy rocker cover ? Look at the inside of the cover for clash marks from the valve retainers smacking the cover.

    Great minds - etc

    Do you have a copy of Vizard's A Series bible ?

  • Malc Gilliver15 August 2026

    Stunning !!

    In combination with the K & N the sub stacks have to be low: I could not find them for the SU H1.

  • Les Rose15 August 2026

    While you're at it, fit some stub stacks to the carb mouths. Just enough to round off the entry. I made my own from body filler, but you can buy them.
