Ed Kennell 35,908 #1 Posted December 23, 2018 Any ideas what would cause this stack to get white hot and belch flames ? I leaned out the low idle fuel jet. Checked the exhaust valve. Compression is good. The strange thing is, It only happens in December And at night. VID_20181223_170638.mp4 5 9 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When the fuel mixture is not rich enough the result is that luminus flux, a measure of total quantity of visible light emitted by a source, is increased at an exponential rate with each turn of the idle screw. This phenomenon is known as the I'm yanking your chain effect. 3 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
