I'm assuming it is running a little lean compared to summer conditions. Any advice? Supposed to get 3-6 inches of snow today and looking forward to playing some more tonight and tomorrow.
mb I would def jet up if u tuned the carb in the summer and now its winter time theres going to be a difference in power, which will require more fuel do a speed test run and check the plug. Remember full throttle for 900-1200 feet shut it down keep your foot to the floor then check the plug. On my next build im going with a wideband to get a better and more accurate reading for situations like these, (weather change).
