Several things to report.
1) Oil leak fixed. Was a cracked tank. (See pics below)
After 30+ min. of removing plastic bits where I could get TO
the tank, it was a simple repair. Somehow, some way during
this repair I bent over with the 14v. Dewalt drill and managed to
throw my back out.
2) While waiting for epoxy to dry, I piddled around with the carb some
more. I removed the jet stack, removed the main jet, found an
unknown size drill bit in the bottom of my big toolbox that I could
tell was just a weeeeee bit bigger than the holes in the idle jet, so
I drilled the 4 holes out to the larger size. Stuck the 102 main jet in
and gave the 95 a home in the growing collection box. LOL
VOLA!!!!! After I got all the bits back together (Also put the performance
exhaust back on!) I went for a ride.
NO oil leaks! No where near as much lag off the line. Still has about a 2 second stumble / stutter, but is not as hard of a lag/stutter and I can live with it like that. BUT, not going to. :-D I am convinced I have taken a step in the right direction, and if I can go just a bit bigger yet again in the idle jet and back the main off to a 98, I will have the mixture pegged!
After a 30 min. ride the plug was very black, most of the ride was at WOT.
So I know the 102 jet is just a bit too much.
Also of note, on a long'ish 2-3% Down hill stretch, I reached 57 MPH.
And was pushing 11,000 RPM! 0_0
On the flats I could hold 52, and on the way back UP that same hill was at 48.6 at the top of the hill. This is all on 6.0g Dr Pulley sliders.
I can live with that. :-)
I see often times people in various forums list a "cruise speed".
I am assuming that is a speed at witch one can maintain with only 3/4 throttle instead of wide open throttle. If that is the case, my cruise speed
would be 42 to 44 MPH @ just a sniff over 9000 RPM.
