Man, I guess I should listen when people say "dialup beware"

I dont see any signs of detonation, but the Spark plugs are white, indicating lean running.

white doesnt always indicate running lean. My spark plugs are white but no peppering. I thought I was running lean, hooked an A/F guage up and I was rich across the rpm range and normal and wot. Im running CTR pistons and JUN III.

Plugs aren't gonna tell you much about rich or lean unless you cut the car off right after your pull. Idle makes them look lean almost immediately. LOL
