Powerband too short
Foxx4Beaver:
that surging is a good indicator that you are too lean on top...go to at least a 170main.
drop your pilot down to a 55,you might even have to go down to a 52pilot.
and you can try changing the clip to the 2nd from top position....that may make it too lean for your riding style,so pay close attention to how it runs,you might have to go back to the 3rd position...it should be a lot more crisp in the 2nd from top.
this will also help your black oil problem go away.
Gage:
Alright thanks I appreciate the help I'll give it try.
Foxx4Beaver:
another thing you can try for the surging...is adjust the idle screw so that it WON'T idle....I learned this off this site a while back because mine used to surge like mad.....it didn't completely stop the surging,but it made a huge difference.
