Getting my TS1 barrel back from Langcourts tomorrow, I really don't want to have a repeat seize so I'm looking for some jetting advice for a rich setting to run in. I will also be having my timing set/checked by strobe and doing a leak test to cover all bases.

My set up:

TS1-225
Dellorto 30mm
JL3

Thanks

Scott

Why break it in rich? It's a plated cylinder.

It's been relined with Nikasil

Yes, Nikasil=plated.

If it's jetted and timed correctly, then it will run correctly. Too rich or too lean will cause it to run hot and have problems.

What caused it to sieze in the first place as that needs addressing even if its "unknown" hope you get it sorted
