RE: New diesel owner with a new-guy question

Good to hear from you Lou! Gee, how did you know this was going into a Ringmaster? And didn't you get the memo? "Controline modeling is outdated and obsolete". Are you one of those rogue elements...

RE: New diesel owner with a new-guy question

So that's what I did!

At first I put a couple drops in the exhaust port while it was closed, I was getting "pops and sputtering" but nothing definitive. So I increased compression little by...
