Are the bleeds plugged? Or just discolored? Think these are making it run bad?

Pull your bowls off and look to see if anything, especially metering blocks, look like mine did. Look for white flaky stuff, similar to Ellie's butt fur.

Do you notice this affecting your performance or are you only making an observation that your HSABs are dirty?

What air filter are you using?

How often are you at wide open throttle?

Do you have a photo of this "dirty" condition?
