I never ever do a plug chop. I think that idea is just one more half-baked fuddlestick some idiot made up that we two strokers were left thinking is "bible". Well, as in real life I found out all religious books are way not worth believing because they're full of errors and fairy tales etc proving they're a far cry from being the final word, I don't believe in doing "plug chops" either (or the nonsense about there being just one "tuned length" for an expansion chamber whereas in reality there are three). Why? Think about it. Does the combustion process continuously put layer upon layer of new deposits on the spark plug? NO! It's a very slow process. If it weren't then we'd have to totally scrap it clean once a week. Shoot, I clean mine like once every 6 months! If it is running rich at low speed and lean at high speed then it just doesn't change from black to white and back to black every block. forget it. don't happen.
Believe nothing - test everything
Thanks jag, my carb was at a big of an angle, I heated up the pipe real good and bent it straight then welded up the holes. If it's till running rich I'll check the float but I bet it was the carb angle.
