    Sg4356, by oil blowby I am referring to oil entering the combustion chamber due to valves staying open. It was my first adjustment and I had em a hair too tight
    Skids72, I disassembled the carburetor and found a little trash in the fuel screen blew it out along with all passages, put everything back together and put it back on. The carb is only like a week and a half old. I installed a brand new filter inline when I put it on as well. If your pulling 5" with a heavy cam, not knowing my cam but guessing from the lopiness its a mild at least, would 10" suffice or should I push for better.
    Tech, you the man! I appreciate the link and will definitely be ordering from them on payday

    Now after pulling the carb , cleaning and blowing it out, and new base gasket; it runs but it takes a bit to get her going (like any woman fickle). Best I can get out of the vacuum is 10.5" . It runs pretty smooth with good throttle response. Kicker is, as soon as I put it in drive it dies. I am so close to ordering a new cam kit that its not even funny.

    Instead of providing Politicians with a key to the city; we'd be safer changing the locks.
