Re: fuel pump adjustment

HERE IS ZIGGSTER'S article on to adjust the IP for more fuel. However, before you touch the fuel, get a pyrometer ("pyro"). More fuel gives more heat, too much and you'll kill your motor. I would not recommend turning up the fuel without having the pyro first. Kevin, if you have any questions, please ask.

<font color="blue"> Here's </font> a good link to the archives. You also have an external adjustment screw to play with.
