Guest Blgfoot99 Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 After I filled up my bottle I wanted to try her out. The first run was a blast but the second run the engine stalled and I heard what sounded like marbles in a coffee can. I’m so disappointed right now.

ICULUKN Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 the marbles is extreme detonation.... you need to up your octane or decrease timing..Need to do a compression check to make sure you have good cylinder pressure.G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICULUKN Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Sean...did you change your plugs to copper. Platinum plugs burn too hot for nitrous. Get NGK TR6s' and gap them around .038 for a 100 shot.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigfoot Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Well, I have no idea then.I would have guessed some admin, but I don't see Tim, Eddie or Phil doing it. I could be wrong I guess. So I don't have a best guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigfoot Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Nope, not any of the admins... But you have to admit, it was funny!Yeah, I got a laugh out of it. I just feel bad for all the posters giving sympathy...or the fact that they fell for it. All except our expert LEO Ted. We now know he makes a good cop with that attention to detail.

Desertdawg Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Dean posted Blgfoot99 and Bigfoot99 are not the same person. I was sitting here laughing at the bogus poster and thought it was to soon to let the cat out of the bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
