QUOTE(JohnWayne @ Aug 21 2012, 12:36 PM)  yeah Well Howdy Doody! I bet that is my exact problem as well. My MPS no longer has the epoxy on it and when I put back the 270 Ohm resistor I bet the combination was way too rich. Who knows what the PO has it set to. Thanks! Oil Change is on the schedule! ( I have new rings as well.) |
