excess fuel coming out exhaust
« on: February 27, 2011, 04:13:47 PM »
I run redline 60 to1 mix with 100 oct fuel. Im running 48 pilot, 168 main stock needle. Im getting a lot of fuel oil spitting out the silencer. spark Plug is normal heat range. plug color is light tan looks like burning good. I cant figure out why it still is doing this. I was running 50 to1 and larger jets but I figured with going leaner and lowering the oil it would stop but no. The bike starts and runs great  plenty of power. I thought it may be it needs a mix of half 91oct and 100oct I figured you guys are good on here you might know. help :evil:

When my head gasket blew it did the same thing.  Plug looked great, ran great, but it spit out the exhaust.  Swapped the head gasket and problem solved.  Something to look into I guess.
