Generally I just do a couple pulls at the start of he day for a base line and tune for popping. No matter what I set the box to I...

    Sharpen saw blades ??

    Yes its worth it. those blades have decent carbide in them. I get mine done at All blade Canada in Edmonton, be anywhere from 25-45$ per blade depending on how many teeth/chipped or missing. They seem to come back even sharper than new..

So now no gauges at all. I haven't had time to take it in for a check but the question...

Meanwhile he's all lit up with a full four place lights shining at Jupiter burning out your retinas while your trying to keep it between the lines or from...

    Well should help but might want to not cut the fuel in the slip tank, just blend as you need, av will stay fresh longer in a steel slip than the 91, Now that your at approx. 27% makes it harder to change if its not quite what you need..

    They (the nay sayers) also have said don't run straight av gas its too dry it will wreck everything. That's been proven wrong many times over on that too. I've logged over 6000km with oil in the tank on two etecs and never had an injector issue..

    Water/meth Injection

    Water to meth don't like 2 stroke. 4 stroke ya you could try it.. Injecting water into the bottom end won't help the rod and crank bearings. Compound the issues we are having already.

    I agree it's do as you want or feel. So far my scenario is working better for me than doing what they have been recommending. Which is practically nothing oil related, all octane related, which if you follow what linderman and other etec builders say 100 ll straight will make your bottom end...

    As for the sabre oil, if it does what it says it does then should be a great product.. But I didn't see them testing there blowers with snow blankets heat sogging the engines running at 40-100% over there duty cycles like our turbo sleds are run.

    I realize I'm leaving a little performance on the table to try for reliability. But even with boosted oil pump and mixing @40:1 you wouldn't know it. My 11etec went down mag side @ approx. 4400km/2000km on boost, non intercooled @5lbs boost. running t 8000-9000f elevation, mixing tank @ 50:1...
