Is it the compression things ? Is it too rich ? What is probable cause if it still dies after I lean it ? Thx for your inputs !!
If your car cuts off at WOT its usually because the engine is running way to lean, but you say its running more on the rich side. try a new plug, whats this about a "little bit rattling sound"??

hey gonzo, this is a rendering of a model jet engine I've just finished designing, even after playing around loads with powerful cad programs I still use paint, go figure
