cvgmmartin Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Does he also have an 11 tooth engine sprocket? If so then his gearing is slightly lower than yours and you would expect his engine to pull a bit better than yours at low speeds, if it doesn't then it is an engine tune problem. If he had a 12 tooth engine sprocket then his gearing is almost the same as yours so there shouldn't be much difference. If he had 13 teeth at the engine then his would be higher geared than yours and perhaps not pull so well at low rpm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cvgmmartin Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 It sounds as though his engine is just not in as good a state of tune as yours, and if that is the case then you have all the possible problems related to exhaust systems, carburation, ignition timing, engine condition, etc (or as you say possibly something stupid) to look forward to fixing.
