No matter what the jetting is, the engine will let you know what it wants and needs. You just have to invest time into it, pay attention and be patient. What i do and this has worked exceedingly well for me is jet it baseline to formula : idles intake valve x 1.5, main is 4 x vent size ( id use a modifier of 4.1 for your 2.0), and 180 air. I note operational characteristics and compare to a handful of personal parameters i rate jetting on according to response and performance. Then i start jetting down. Working on idle circuit first, then compare transition and then jet mains. I compare plug readings along the way and in the end, i jet to get best performance and best mpg.

Joe,

then tell me why 17:1 runs cooler than 13:1 A/F? Since lean is so hot of course....... And 18:1 is cooler still......


EGT's

In a light ACVW one can get away with a leaner burn (under load or WOT). In a bus that's a different story.

Define pig rich? I'll give one a hint...it isn't 13:1

Max power is ~ 12.5 AFR
