that explains a lot - Gabe told me that the new CC runs a lot cooler & also that the lube line requires a restrictor. The recommended restrictor is 22 gage hypo needle (~.016" dia.) I made my own & have experimented with a few different ID. I did notice that the fuel consumption is better with smaller restrictor size & that the poping is less. I will try a smaller size & let you know. This forum is excellent. We should keep it this way as supposed to all the bashing in the past. Thanks for all your inputs.

Do you think it could also be the reason for the hot spot? I will take note of this when I change restrictor size.
