Tach Race Unlimited
I was working on the backplate of my Tach Race engine the other day and got the bright idea to open up the inlet hole a bit where the fuel line slips on. (that hole is very small)
When I mounted it up for a test run it would flood even with the needle closed, took me a minute to realize I had gone too far and opened up where the needle seats
Back to the drawing board

Re: Tach Race Unlimited
Wonder if you could block the needle valve hole, and use a remote needle assy upstream from the fuel inlet?

Had better luck with my Mouse, I assembled it, test run one tank, saw the tach number and quickly bagged it and tagged it.
Now if I can just leave it alone till its in the mail!
