It's great to here you got the job done.

Hey Warwick,out of curiosity have you tried to adjust your air mixture screws since doing your cams. Wondering if you still have the difference as before or if they can be adjusted in a more balanced fashion ?No noticeable difference to air fuel mixture (AFM). I have a gauge showing AFM as I ride and it seems to be reading the same, but I need more driving to be sure.
Yes, I am almost the same adjustment for both air mixture screws, now that the cams are timed together. Just a 1/4 more turn for the rear cylinder to account for the bend in the rear manifold.higgy wrote:Hey Warwick,out of curiosity have you tried to adjust your air mixture screws since doing your cams.

This is an interesting question. I was wondering about ignition timing.higgy wrote:Still looking G
I have only heard of this being done on air cooled vee twins that do not get enough air over the rear cylinder to cool it. Is there some one out there with more info?romus wrote:This is an interesting question. I was wondering about ignition timing.higgy wrote:Still looking G
So far I have done the good improvements on the carb and cam timing. I understand that ignition timing is one of the other factors that should be adjusted right.
What is this thermal load anyway, that they would want to fix it by retard ignition timing for the rear cylinder? Why would it be a mistake to be fixed?
I still have my old two cycle dial indicator set .When I do finally get around to doing my cam timing I'll let you know what I findBtw anyone used a TDC finder to precisely measure if the TDC marks are accurate ?
Engineer friend did this on a DB2. TDC mark was just 1-2 degrees off.Btw anyone used a TDC finder to precisely measure if the TDC marks are accurate ?
This is specially the case if larger valves are installed or cams with increased lift or like in my case both.BE VERY,VERY GENTLE WHEN ROTATING THE ENGINE WITH THE
PISTON STOP IN AS YOU DON'T WANT TO PUT THE STOP THROUGH
THE TOP OF THE PISTON.ALSO, DO NOT ROTATE THE CRANK A FULL
360 DEGREES WITH THE STOP IN AS THERE IS A CHANCE THAT THE
VALVES MAY MAKE CONTACT WITH THE STOP.
