Angry update.....? still not 100%

THANKS GUYS FOR ALL THE TIME ON THE PHONE. I AM REALLY GLAD FOR THE TIME,TALK, & HELP

I got it in and the idle was to low to keep it running. I turned up the idle and it idles very smooth. I idled it for a little and rev the motor kinda quick and it will rev to about 2500 to 3000 and start missing. I said ah it is cold....no go.. I tried to rev it slowly and it will rev till about 3000 and do the same thing.

I wonder what is going on...

1.Maybe it is low on fuel
2.maybe I have to tighten the springs a little
3.maybe the 60lb springs will solve it but it starts only at 2500-3000 plus if I rev slow it will be fine till about 3000-3200

Anyone have any suggestions?

Whats your timing set at? With more RPM's you will need more than stock timing, it could possibly be lower than what stock suppose to be.

it didn't do anything to change the rpm, was as if it had the stock ones.

Thumbs up update.....

Well about the pumps. They put these in to make the pumps into spec by adding the spacers if I am correct. It is like balancing a tire impo. So by taking the shims out you unbalence the pump and add the springs....Anyhow I could be wrong.

From what I found out about the kit. I did get the springs measured and installed collectly finally. Basically you have the bottom spring retainer,top spring retainer,springs,and the nut

Put them in the way you took them off or about 3 clicks and you are good so to speak.

Also they do pull harder. I would say on my setup it was 4% up to 60 then about 5% up to 100

I think I am getting air in my system but I am going to do some testing....

I got it figured out.

It was the shut off level being in to far. I took it off to take the plug off the side of the pump to do this. When I put it back on I pushed it to far against the pump and made the shut of bind up. I ran it all day and no problems at all except the normal......

thanks guys for the help.........
