Guys...
Can't help but believe we are losing
something in the translation, here.
A faster rising of the piston (as Duncan
points out) can be counterproducive to
acceleration in terms of low end torque
not only because of the "ramming affect"
of a "smaller" venturi at the low end,
but also because of the "leaning out"
of the mixture on acceleration caused
by "too great a rate".
The thing is, the "proper weight" oil
is "correct" for "rate of rise" in accordance
with the maker's design of the application to begin with.
The spring controls wherein the needle
will reach it's "proper" position within
the jet with respect to the motor's "redline", consistant with the
immediately
foregoing paragraph begining with
"in accordance".
Is this not the case? Or, am I missing
something (besides a brain, that is:)?
Cap'n. Bob
