[QUOTE="OLD CT, post: 174287, member: 464"] Another good idea is the take the intake off to see if the port is black like racerx suggests. Black means the valve itself is leaking and losing compression.It is a really good test to ''gauge'' the engines condition. If you do not need to use the choke cold you have a rich situation. Sometimes it is good as you know the bike is safely jetted and will run cooler. If the plug is black and sooty on the other hand, the clip is the first thing to adjust and do not cost anything. Sounds like tripod is kinda close, always good to make a friend here. This forum has a lot of good people and we actually like to meet in person at events or if one is stumped with a running condition and such for help, when time permits. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
