Castor 929 32:1 FMF Pipe and Silencer, 160 main jet ( I think?) Never ever fouled a plug

i keep fouling plugs

me thinks you need a carb rebuild kit. try the moose brand for around $17 from your local shop.

Did you just get this or have you had or for some time? Is the problem new, or has it always been present? Did it occur suddenly or did it start infrequently and get steadily worse? What mixture was it originally carbureted for?

First thing is to know what kind of condition your top end is in? If you start making carburetion and fuel misture adjustments for a problem caused by low compression, youll end with a melted piston. If compression is good then you can start playing with carburetion, but first decide what fuel oil mixture you are going to run, and stick with it. Then if you are still fouling you can start dropping jet sizes to lean it some.

i run the amsoil at 80:1. its all i use. if its hard to find get ahold of someone whos a dealer. there alot of em. and buy a case. you'll eventually use it all.

sorry yall, it's SYNERGYN TCW3 & i was wondering if that or the 85 carb was making my spark plugs foul. I also would like to know what the best pipe they make for a 350 Rancher and 650 Prarie. THANKS

80:1? dang, that is lean. i would run 50:1 with amsoil.

HEY plkmonster2, how much does that stuff cost. Because a honda dealer said it was just as good as Castor 927.

i dont know if the castor is as good, but most castor products are really good. i believe that amsoil is expensive, and hard to find, but i usually dont use it. i felt concern becuase you shouldn't be running any sport oil in sport use at that highof a ratio
