I like the suggestion of enlarging the eye brows to o= vercome the problem ... will likely do that when it comes time to buy my ne= xt set.

Steve, Bobby Hughes suggested that I only test the disable switches at 3000 rpm or= above. So yesterday I tried that. The secondary acted the same, slightly= richer. The primary caused the engine to cough and choke up a couple of h= airballs, go really lean, then come back and run slightly richer just like = the secondary. They both came to a mixture of 11.6-11.7 after the disable. This works the same on both A and B controllers. I think this means that t= he EC-2 is working, although it is taking a while to get the decision made = to turn on the secondary after it realizes that I have turned the primary o= ff. This time delay was causing the engine to stop when I ran the test at = idle. The way it acts might be a little disconcerting to a passenger if I = tell them I am checking to make sure the engine runs ok....:>) On another note, I took your advice and bought and installed the BR10EIX pl= ugs yesterday after the test. I found an old plug wrench and ground it dow= n in order to get them installed. Naturally the wrench was so thin that it= cracked on the install. I doubt that it will hold up to do a change. I p= lan to get a wrench and have someone turn it down to fit. I assume that you have already done this. What dimension did you turn the = socket to? It seems that the opening in the block is one inch but the wren= ch would need some clearance? I am way too tight to buy that wrench from R= acing Beat for $82 + shipping! :>) Bill This message, and the documents attached hereto, is intended only for the a= ddressee and may contain privileged or confidential information.
