fivetenguy Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 LOL! It was a combination of testing the limits, looking in the rear view and the tires a little over inflated as the track was getting hotter by the end of the day. I remember going right at the photographer as my rear end came around me. :rofl: :rofl: I bet he took a few steps back before he finally shot the picture once I had came completely off of the track. I ordered prints from the photographer and will frame that one. :thumbup: I had a great time. Can't wait to get back on the track with these cool Datsun peeps again. :thumbup: 3 Quote Link to comment

You can't compare 5 min to an hour plus!! 1 Quote Link to comment

Demo, I thought the issue was the needle valve? Maybe swap needle valves from the bad carb to the good one and see if the issue follows. 1 Quote Link to comment

Maybe swap needle valves from the bad carb to the good one and see if the issue follows. The original issue was the needle valve... So I ordered up two rebuild kits to rebuild em both... Then when I pulled off the front carb... The manifold ear was broken off... Looks like it has been repaired before... So rather the risk it breaking again I am upgrading to Mikuni 44s. Unfortunately this puts the datto out for ~5 weeks 3 Quote Link to comment
