Exhaust port on the pipe may not be completely closed, but may be clogged enough to reduce your pressure and cause a problem. Just a theory, but I've cleaned a lot of pipes and you would be surprised what comes out!
Yep, I thought of that. Ran it on 3 pipes. An OFNA 086, Nova 9886, and a brand new never ran before OS 2090. Did it on all 3 pipes. Other 3 buggy engines will run all day and night with all the same parts. I am getting ready to tear it down here in 30 minutes actually. I will take pictures tonight or tomorrow morning.
