Purchased inserts for the heads. Plugs are not longer an issue. The NGK 10 plugs are now collectors items. Thinking of mounting them on the wall. Anyone have any ideas?
It is interesting you mention Plugs. Apparently they do not make them anymore. The "NGK 10" is no longer in production and is very difficult to source. We only have the two in the motor currently. Anyone have or know where there is a couple we can purchase?
Keep an eye on those plugs...the ratio change is also going help richen up the the air / fuel ratio...Brown is safe.......tan is perfect...white is close to boom

Testing has been hampered by social schedules this past weekend.
The boat was run. Adjusts to the fuel / air mixture was slightly adjusted "two" clicks towards lean. An increase of speed was the result. We have now pushed over the 65 mph mark and are at 66mph. You may have heard rumors that our first test run with this boat yielded 61mph. This is an impressive increase. Adjustments to motor position are also responsible for some of this improvement.
A short discussion about modifying the fuel oil mixture was kicked around. Presently at 28 : 1, we are going to try 32 : 1 on the next two gallon batch. It turns out that a high percentage of the competition is running at 32 : 1.
This weeks maintenance check list is short. a larger bow hook is to be installed, the wood needs some attention on the right sponson and a very holes need to be filled for cosmetic reasons.
