260 Fuel Puddling From Idling
I've had a problem for a long time getting a really Crisp response when I initially hammer the gas after idling.
For about 2 seconds the engine sounds fat, then cleans up and does it's thing!
I've spoke with Tony about the issue and we've figured it may be from fuel puddling in the crankcase from idling prior to the initial hammering the throttle.
His answer was to keep going more lean with the ACU's Idle and Volume settings to see if it helps.
I'm just wondering if any others have or had a similar problem and found the answer to get a super crisp off idle response???WillySteve Hendricks

I would try trimming the motor up some when idling. I do this with my 300x. Just dont forget to trim down when taking off
