Yeah you would expect the manifold to glow when pushed, but on highway driving? The thing was that it wasn't doing it when it was being driven around the city (and we were getting fair up it really around the city Confused).

I was expecting to see burnt exhaust valves and what not charles...no sign of them?

The only thing I can think is that it is running rich at idle (and we idled it down to let it cool, hence the carbon build up?) but mega lean up top Shocked

Back to it not doing it in the city might also be related to extended running while lean (if it is running lean only up top, right at the highway cruising rpm/load).

Hope you can figure out some answers bud! (I'll send you the crappy vid and that pic now too btw, also I've got my new diff in, will start dropping the box today Smile )


Cheers
Wilbo
