I unscrewed the plug a little, put after run in it before I even tried to turn it over. I had it running for about 3 seconds so far lol. I think I have to lean the lsn and hsn a few hours to try to get it started.

thanks Monty, I did try giving some throttle. I also have a plus 4 team edition and it wasn't this tight lol. I had it running for 5 seconds and when it cuts out its stuck at tdc. And man it is a pain to get it back at bdc, my poor snap on screwdriver is catching hell trying to spin the flywheel over when it gets stuck lol. And the whole time I have the competition heater on the motor.

Did you try a heat gun? I'd go 220 or so and try to fire it up.

Yeh a heat gun will get you up over 200f very quickly, also gets some heat into the chassis as well. The other day I broke 2 fusion motors in and did find at 200f turned over but still a little tight, get it to about 220 started with ease.

Also don't run the comp heat for more that 10min at a time as you can burn out the element.

So, you richened up the LSN? I did as per Monty's instructions. Maybe not enough. :confused: I am thinking since my location is El Paso and the air is thin, less oxygen it may be influencing this maybe, maybe not...

But, my HSN was above flush when it was doing this stuff. I hear people are below flush on the HSN. I know it varies, I just want to get this tune down. I was thinking that I needed to richen the HSN too. I am going to restart from stock settings and try again. Just wondered, thank you.

Novarossi headers rules!

Hi all.

Is Novarossi headers just better than every other brands of headers? I've broken Hong Nor / Jammin, Picco and SH headers. For min. half of my time on the track have I used Novarossi headers, and NEVER broken or bent one. The other brands are just not that durable. Do you guys have the same experience?
