Now have two gallons threw the picco..so fare so good..lots of power..runs awesome. Now with the temp around 45 to 50 outside the picco never hits over 200. More like it runs at 180..is that ok..if i rap the motor it will run 210 but never any hoter..am i going to kill this motor...thanks for the help
 
You should be ok at 210 but I don't like much below 200. You can try wraping the lower half of the cooling head in tin foil. Keep an eye on it at first until you know how it will act.
 
Also it takes 1/2 tank to get the temps to 180..and if i turn the hsn 1/6 turn in to lean it out ,it starts to run like crap...so i turn it back and runs great.....when breaking the motor in the temps where at 210 - 220.....but now i have low temps... p.s just installed the MIP cvd on all 4 corners...there awesome.
 
I still would wrap half the the cooling head in foil and keep checking the temps to keep an eye on it and see how it will react.
 
1/6th turn and it leans out to much? You should try richening another 1/4th turn and slowly lean it in from there, if it seems rich. If you're ever questioning the tune you should richen it first so you can get an idea where it's at. Wrapping the head would be a really good idea too.
 
Thanks guys wrapped the head. Richen it up 1/4 turn and ran it...best its ran yet and temps r at 220-225..only problem i have now is picco power likes to eat center drivelines...lol thanks again for ur help
