Hi Fredintoon thanks for the response I was thinking the running in oil may be too thin. its Millers Liquid glaze bust SAE 20. what i am using.
I messed about with the carbs and re jetted them to stock but my plugs come back, black and greasy no matter what i do with the Mixture screw, also I turn the idle down real low running, adjust the mixture screw get the sweet spot, and its about a quater turn before the mixture screws bottoms out.
I uped the main due to the engine lagging as i go over 1/4 throttle drop the pilot jet to a 30 from stock which is 47.5 check floats , return mixture to 1 and a half out ,,,,no change ,,,Black sooty plugs oily residue ,,, little smoke on idle ,,, when i rev it more smoke and you can smell that oily smell .
I have only done 35 miles took it easy at first then not over 50 to 60 MPH revs never more than 6k lots of engine breaking made sure oil level was half way between max and min . timming spot on, timimg chain , valve lash , timimg by the book ,,,, back to square one. i will try what you suggested as i dont fancy pulling the engine again to yet anyway ....the engine pulls like a train loads of power ... will get some 20/50 tomorrow ....Cheers
