Alright boys, Im not out of the weeds yet with this possessed shovel but we're getting close. This might be another long winded one because of a slight recap.
Last month a few of you guys helped me figure out the PO put the wrong pitch cam in my 75. I ended up replacing & shimming it with the correct Andrews J cam. Stock tappets, blocks, and pushrods. Removed whatever rocker arms the guy put in it to work with the evo oiling system and rebuilt & shimmed them back to completely stock rocker boxes. After adjusting everything and timing it she started right up first kick so I started dialing in the carb. Side note: I was getting it ready for GGR and spent about 2 days tuning it. It was running fine at idle, has good compression, just runs like shit on top end.
The problem I'm running into is its running rich with a 60/295 jet setup on a super e. Yes that's correct, absolutely drenches the plugs within 5 minutes. I have also tried more than one super e with different setups, same result. I somehow rode it to GA from Myrtle Beach that way and went through 4 sets of spark plugs on the way. Im not sure if it could be the coil, I've tried 2 different coils. They are 3.9 OHM and im running points ign. My first plan of action is to replace that with a 2 OHM coil in two weeks when I get home from work.
At this point I've exhausted everything I have in my mental toolbox with what it could be. I dropped the bike off with a reputable guy while I have been on the road for work but the guy has yet to look at it so I'm going to have to collect it and figure it out myself once again when I get back home
