I run my Spit on alternate tanks of leaded and unleaded, am I suppose to chage
the
timing for the unleaded, as I get even crappier performance than usual(nearly
the
same as Tom's diesel Spit :-)) and it's quite a bit worse on fuel than it is
with
good old high explosive non-carcenogenic unenvironmentally friendly stuff!!! :-)

ISTR hearing, possibly on this list, that you can rev the engine a bit and at
the
same time spray a fine spray of water in the carbs for the same effect! Is the
right????
