I seem to think that mine is doggier when it is way rich, so I dunno. I was
going to try richening it last time I drove it. I remembered the harness, I
remembered the Allen key, but did I bring a multimeter? Next time out I'll
try it though. (I'd always thought of 5.5mA as the target)Heck, we may even
do a test and tune night and just screw with it for more "scientific"
results. But Klaus comes first, and he's still wanting significant
attention. Which he will get.
