Cylinder mixture differences
Its obvious from peering inside the exhausts that the rear cylinder on the 888 (Strada) is running a little leaner than the front. The header from the rear cylinder is completely clean of carbon whilst the front cylinder has a dusting of carbon. It is, however, not a massive difference as the plugs look the same. As both cylinders run the same map does this mean that I have a slight problem with one of the injectors or is a slight difference usual (I guess the rear will run hotter)? Also could a slight imbalance in the throttle sync cause this?
Thanks,
Keith
