Otis Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 I'd be more worried about that neon green stuff in your jugs........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meat Posted October 2, 2005 Report Share Posted October 2, 2005 That does look fine, but actually a lil carbon buildup tells me your running a little rich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

breidy Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 (edited) what you're gonna wanna do is get 40 grit sandpaper and just scrape the pistons until they're shiney. j/k its perfectly normal Edited October 3, 2005 by breidy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
