Not Ranked
The restrictor testing has begun. The largest of the 3 in the kit is installed. I drove it tonight and it behaved just as before, cool down the road, temps rising to 90-95C at average timed red lights, then up to 100C sitting in the driveway idling. I'll install the smallest restrictor tomorrow eve.
I do want to mention that as a result of the tuning and timing last week, the overall time to temp rise at lights and when idling is slower than before, but I still fear that if I were to let it sit and idle it would eventually melt down. Not going to try it to find out.
