Was "High EGT...."

I've got a spare Briggs and Stratton sitting here in the garage if you need it. It runs fine, but it's a bit hard to fire up in cold weather as I filled it with 90# gear oil when I ran out of regular oil last spring.

Really..., how's it going? Any progress?

Well the fuel iussue is finally done and working . When i rejetted for our colder temps It turns out it was just to damn rich and was creating a flamew front going by the egt raising the temps, and then flooding the engine out at wide open throttle . when i rejet back to normal sealevel It runs like a top and egt are ok . GO figure . I am installing a airfuel ratio gauge so i can see just where my jetting is versus the egt gauge . It should read 14.7 for the best performance but i would like it to be around 14 for peace of mind and variance in temp and altitude. well see and I will give a update.
