is this ok or is there sumthing wrong, the car runs really fast and no stalls whats so ever:whhooo:
 
you actualy can go up 30-40 more degrees and still be fine..as long as it runs good and there is still smoke trail id lean it out jsut a lil more...to about 220-240. at least thats what i run all my mills at...still gives you sum room for when the tank runs low and leans out.
 
How cold is it outside? If you're sucking in cold air, the engine will remain colder than normal. People think: "I can push this thing up to 240! Woohoo". Because the outside temp is cold, the engine is actually too lean when you're trying to get up to those temps.

The proper fuel/air mix has nothing to do with temp of the engine!

Just some words of warning,
Rob
