[QUOTE="nkt267, post: 53068, member: 245"] No..Check your timing.adding weld to the ears on the ATD will only limit the amount of advance you have..What is your timing set at fully advanced?? The standard is 38deg BTDC.I have my Comet set at 34 and it seems ok.I think Martyn has his set at 32 unless he has changed it recently. What sort of speed is 'Flat out'. Also some pipes are made of material that is too thin and they can blue badly as well. If the blueing is only for an inch or two then I personally would'nt worry too much, but check your mixture..What main jet have you got in and what needle position do you have.John [/QUOTE]
