idk what is causing it.
You have dirt in your HSN

Remove HSN completely from brass reciever
Flush the HSN by blowing into the pressure line
Clean the needle and replace


Whenever an engine goes from rich to lean like this its usually a carb obstruction .

i just found out i have a leaky front bearing. it looks like its leaking fuel...are there ramifications for leaving it like this? or can i keep running the motor without it really messing anything up.

Did it leak while racing it or as it sat during the week? If you leave a Go motor with a pretty full fuel tank it can seep into the motor after sitting.

If its not alot you will be ok. But take the flywheel off and spin the crank with your hand and see if the inner race ONLY spins try it a few times if the seal doesnt spin along with the race the bearing is still okay. If it is the stock bearing that went through break in and has 4-5 gallons on it you may want to replace it. Have you changed your rod at 2-3 gal? What I do is break in run it to 3 3.5 gal strip and change to TKO's front and rear new rod and clips at least, you most of the time can get away with the factory pin. But if you have no leak symptems your okay for now but start getting the parts i mentioned, TKO's arent a must but are nice to have and really the same price if not cheaper than stock bearings so what the hell right.

It was sitting for a few days with the tank empty. i took out the flywheel to change it and found some dirt caked on the bearing. when i went to wipe it out. a little while later it looked to be that a little bit of fuel starting seeping out of it. wiped it again then no more...what are the simptoms of a leaky bearing. i have only gone through a gallon on the engine

Hi Ben. Thats unusual. I have never heard of that happening before.
Put it down to bad luck I guess. When you replace the crank get one of the new Gen 5 cranks. They slip straight in and do enhance performance.
Massive Mods in Aus has them if you canīt get one local.

Contact Paul Fey here in Auckland first. He may well be able to help you.

Cool. I should have realised that Paul was down at the NI Champs.
I should have been there myself, but work and finances dictated otherwise.
Trying hard to make it to the Windy 500. Might catch up with you there
