debugging test - -HELP!
my local RV group is totally worthless
("I find the carnauba wax doesn't show fingerprints as much as
the....")(except Mike!) the on-field mechanics are sick of me coming
by.
LOL! OK, here's my guess- do you
possibly have a crack in one of your exhaust pipes, probably near the
cylinder, or perhaps a bad gasket? I've hear this story plenty of
times on 2-smoke engines, but I would expect it to be worse on those due
to the tuned exhaust. Often times the crack is almost invisible,
and pretty well sealed until the pipes really heat up, then it opens up
enough to cause problems.
Good luck,
