There and back was around 240km so I'm up to just under 500km (300miles) for the running in.
It was still running a little rough and stalled almost every time I had to stop for something. When I got home I checked the for leaks around the inlet manifold and everything was tight. I checked compression again and it was better than before. All four cylinders where over 16 Bar. At the same time I checked the spark plugs and all were showing signs of the engine being too lean. I'll talk to Henrik about it as I don't want to do any damage. Perhaps he will suggest tuning before going any further.
Grey, signs of a too lean mix or is this normal in an injected engine?
The fuel consumption also indicated it was a little lean. Just before the engine rebuild it was doing around 16 litres/100km, not surprising really with broken pistons. On my best ever day without the SC I got around 7 litres/100km. Yesterday it was also down to around 7, which I think is a little low - great but a little low!
