Deuling's 1985 K5. "Restart thread on post #8415"

Thats what Trent said. Said that if it aint broke by sunday then it will be by the time it goes on the trailer
 
Had a super awesome time yesterday with the family.













Checked a plug today also.

Looks good to me :dunno:

 
that was a new plug with the fresh heads, I'm assuming?



if so, a bit rich...
 
Looks good other then the carbon built up. Don't know how to fix that other then maybe a stronger spark to burn cleaner?

Better than lean :thumb:

If I put in a the next lightest metering rod springs in, will that lean it out just a touch? There is like 6 of them in the kit and i have the 2nd stiffest ones in right now.

run it some more, and see how they look with 25 or so hr's on em.. should be a good "tell" at that point, on how rich it's running.. , like ya said, rich is better... if they get pretty sooty by that point, yeah, change em out and put fresh plugs in......
 
There was one halfway decent video taken yesterday. I actually was just testing the ramp at this time. I had no idea tires even left the ground because it landed so smooth lol.

Will do. Thanks dude :waytogo:
 
Nice pics and video, they are so cool, just think, they would be even cooler yet if you had your hood on! :D
 
Don't worry Adam, I have a 4" tall K&N filter without a drop base, and the hood still fits on. :pimp1:

Whew, that was a close one, I know you were worried your hood wouldn't fit. :thumb:
 
You did not jump the truck. You need to be on the trottle when you leave the ramp. What you did was accidentally float the front tires for a second. You even admitted you did not know they left the ground.:D
