Whaaat ? you have.6 slower...thats 6/10ths.. Ain't No way !!! .daym mine didn't slow down that much after breaking push rod wiping out cam lobe dropping a cylinder.....do you mean .006 ????? :shock:
Nope I meant .6...first pass ran a xx.61 something didn't feel right and only thing that had been changed was plug gap, pulled plugs re gapped and ran xx.01
I think you may have had a diffrent problem that was fix when you pulled the plugs like a bad connection/ connections on your plug wires. how much did your MPH drop off?
