Reply to "Mangusta Engine Pull"

I think that I've finally got the problems ironed out. The major problem was the valves were adjusted too tight. Amazing how such a little bit of adjustment could affect the engine that much. Less than a quarter turn of the lock nut caused my problems. I adjusted the valves with a vacuum gauge hooked up and you could see the vacuum drop when the valves were tightened just a bit tight. She's really a sensative bitch! My vacuum doubled to 19hg and she seems to be running well. I have not taken her on a lengthly test trip yet. Thanks for the interest and support.
