FIRST BANSHEE Posted April 12, 2005 Report Posted April 12, 2005 how did your plugs look when you changed them... sounds like you ran lean and melted the frount of your pistons by the exhaust port. do a compression check. good luck Quote

ledofthezep Posted April 12, 2005 Report Posted April 12, 2005 I'd say check your compression as well & then go from there. Quote
fastbanshee4u Posted April 14, 2005 Report Posted April 14, 2005 i will do a cp test later, what should it be at???? 353738[/snapback] you need about 100 to fire. Make sure you hold the throttle wide open you run the test. Quote
