After seeing the inside of my head, it seems that I have a lean condition. What causes the Lean condition and how can I fix it?

L-jet + lean == vacuum leak, almost always.

L-jet + lean == vacuum leak, almost always. --DD (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) L-Jet is crazy sensative to vacuum leaks. Even the valve covers are critical to get 100% sealed. 99% sealed on L-Jet will make it run incorrectly. Check everything, as others have said, replace hoses. Also, the oil filler has to be 100% sealed, the cork gasket at the base has to be soft and 100% sealed. I wouldn't adjust anything, just seal the system up. |
