These are rather low compression engines and at peak cylinder pressure (at WOT) they should NOT be detonating (even with the lower octane rating available).


I'm stealing this picture, but the pilot circuit has no effect on the overall fuel delivery at WOT and the needles stop being effective past 3/4 throttle or so. You should consider upping to a 100 main jet AT THE LEAST (DJ #98).

It's got to be confusing on the forums with all us Yankees talking about 87 octane gas all the time even though most of the rest of the world goes by RON only
