Editing Talk:How to ask a question

Choose any/all that apply from the following list (can be cut/pasted to a thread): Type/size of engine Camshaft specs: • lift • advertised duration • duration @ 0.050" lift • LSA • ICL • installed w/any advance/retard? • valve spring specs • FT or roller • solid or hydraulic Ignition timing: • initial • total • "all in by" RPM Vacuum advance(?): • how much timing does vac. adv. supply • vacuum advance hooked to manifold or ported vacuum Engine vacuum at idle Compression ratio Intake type Carb type and size Current carb specs: • jetting • power valve • accelerator pump cam • squirter size • turns on the idle mixture screws • any changes that have been made from how the carb was originally set up Along w/the vehicle specifics like: • weight • gear ratio • trans type/ratio The way you use the vehicle: • race • w/e toy • parade • DD Then describe: • the symptoms of what is (or is not) happening • what RPM the problem occurs • what you're looking for overall • anything else pertaining to the problem that may help diagnose it ==Systematic approach==
