[QUOTE="Cyborg, post: 106415, member: 3426"] Thanks again. My father had a PHD in microbiology so as a child I got to play in the lab and see some interesting things. He spent some time doing experiments in the local cyclotron....fascinating world. He would have loved it if I took a similar path. Unfortunately I was more interested in motorcycles and then he made the mistake of taking me with him on sabbatical to the University of Sussex. Somehow I ended up in a pub full of VOC members. A fellow by the name of Bill Lawless helped feed my habit and the rest is history as they say. I wonder how my recently purchased jets (from China) would fair in one of your testing sessions. I suppose ultimately it won't matter what number is on them if the A/F gauge tells me what I need to know. Might cause some frustration getting there. I had thought about drilling out the existing plot jet just to get me into the ballpark. When I pulled out the drill set a look at the #79 drill bit made me think life is too short and Ebay was a better option. [/QUOTE]
