sorry im doing 2 things same time here,important check cam journals inside case and sidecover,back to lunch i go.

next time before unbolting head,check lash, make sure valvetrain isnt holding the valves slightly open when Hot because this problem didnt happen for 20mins tells me something hot internally .carb just dosent go out of tune unless fuel obstruction....

@@kg2mb1 I’m not sure they didn’t come with shims but I’m gonna take the lash caps off this time around so the tips aren’t as wide
