What are you using to remove the aluminum?

What are you using to remove the aluminum?

swimming pool acid, and q-tips     its cheap.     eats the alum off VERY fast...    and wont touch the nikasil.

put it on.. when it stops bubbling,   the alum is gone,.


also very good for finding cracks    HINT HINT......   (on newly plated, cyls also)

"Thou shalt not run 2 sizes too small main in a 41mm carb on a K5 wide open down fire road with s**tty oil."     - ˭M˭  3:16

Is it okay to ask what size main was in it?

I could have sworn that I had a 170 in there......thats why I didn't even think to look at the jetting.  No excuses......still very much my bad!!

This is what I was running at 40:1..........


This is what I will be running from now on........



As far as coolant goes I was running plain water with this........


This is what I will be running from now on.......



OR



The failure of the water as coolant, the failure of the Maxima burning off due to low flashpoint, the failure of the owner to have the proper jets.......all these factors led to this end result

But we're working on it to make it all better.

I bold and underlined the main problem for you!    the others would have been fine with proper jetting.                  ideal... no.. fine. yes



fun looking at the msds for Super M

its up to 15% colman camp fuel..

I'm ordering the Motul by the Gallon online.........

[conbread]

i just seen the formula 2k has less flash point than the super M..

Going to change your Piston window design..    I think the previous tuners design we are all using.. (no names needed)...    may be too large, and LOW    starving the boost ports to the transfers, as well as the floor ports...............


may go to a triangle shape.
