How about the importance of monitoring your air/fuel ratio and what it should be at when spraying. It seems all I ever hear about is how you SHOULD VERIFY AIR/FUEL when spraying, but nobody ever seems to put numbers out there and how much can you push that envolope before running into trouble.

Lots of good suggestions. Trust me I will be covering it all. Expecially reading spark plugs. I have not seen a perfect right up that explains things from a beginer stand point. They all take for granted that alot of people trying to learn do not even know the basics. I think I can aprove upon this.

I am already working on what I will be posting this coming week. We are going to go from the basics to the more complicated stuff so the less knowledgable can start from the basic and understand what we are talking about as we get on the more complicated stuff.

Good. The writeup that was linked above helps some, but is still not very clear.

so....um......it's been a week. You have anything coming Dave? Why not do a write up on how to rebuild a solenoid? Or, common troubleshooting tips for system malfunctions. In the Air Force we have Fault Isolation guides. This is the thing that I think would be the greatest help to the novice user.

That will be all in the comming up weeks. I decied to start off at the basics and gradually get into the more in-depth discussions so that people that are just starting out will understand what we are talking about as we hit those areas that require basic knowledge.
