What heat range spark plugs are you using?
Have you checked thermostat?
Did you flush radiator?

Hey listers.... I finally got the L20 started in my 1600 (yeeeha) but a problem arrose that the motor got very hot very quickly, like within 5 mins or so, the extractors were glowing red. Now, i have twin 40mm delortoes, series 2 bluey dizzy, i set the timing on about 8-9deg. i have the standard radiator running single 10" thermo, no fan on front of motor,pretty new thermostat, There was a lot of fumes in the garage. Am i right to think that the carbies are WAY out of tune and its running extremely rich, or is it something else, i think we stopped the motor when the guage reached 197 F. (autometer water temp guage) Anyone out there have any ideas, as i need to sort this prob out, cause i really dont feel like cooking a brand new motor... thanks guys.. :)
