Bought the quad

Cams

Bucket bores

I have noticed that some buckets are hour-glass shaped. This causes them to be sticky at varying points of compression and will not release fully.

Has anyone used the Optima O2 sensor?

I am looking to find out if anyone has used the O2 sensor in the pipe like the factory did in the dyno room to keep the F/A mixture continuosly adjusted?
