Hello,

I am trying to tune my motor, it is still spewing out blue smoke. But its already around 270F. Is this ok? I take the temperature after I romp on it a few times. It has even reached low 300's. I live in SF. Any tips would really help thank you.

As you probably know there is no set rule as to what temp an engine runs at but 270-300 is a little warm. Have you richened the engine to see if the performance drops? I would run a little richer and see how it acts then. I run a top .12 and it runs harder than I want at 230-235. Also how old is the engine? My Top ran approx 25 degrees warmer during the first gallon to gallon and a half than it does now with the same performance.
