Here it is your reply from 6 months ago Frankshaft.Frankshaft wrote: ↑Thu Jun 07, 2018 8:52 am Is this for the 355 that you have asked this 3 times now? I gave you a good summary on what to do on one of the threads. Not sure what else you want to hear?
I just looked, haven't figured out how to post a link to a post on here, actually, the advice I gave you was actually really good, and would really wake up those heads.
I get your point here.. but that is also a sure fire way to get sucked into narrow minded viewpoints. No one person knows it all and cross referencing various viewpoints from several trusted and respected sources helps to refine you own and allows more pinpointed direction in where to apply certain rules or tricks.rewguy wrote: ↑Thu Jun 07, 2018 1:21 pm "ask-hole" (definition) - someone who asks you a question, which you take time and thought to answer...........Only to ask twenty more people the same question later. Making it seem like a complete waste of time answering them in the first place. If you're going to trust someone enough to ask them in the first place, then take their advice implicitly. Don't insult them by continuing to ask others until you get the response you're after. Not saying this necessarily applies, but in this line of work....it gets old. Quickly.
You just summerized the answer to all your questions on the 50 degree seat thread, lol.groberts101 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 07, 2018 1:51 pmI get your point here.. but that is also a sure fire way to get sucked into narrow minded viewpoints.

On the other hand.. if you don't try what input was given at least once to correlate its effectiveness.. how do you know who's closer to being right on target and which direction to go from there? Trial and error is unavoidable no matter who tells you what. Especially with engines where even small and seemingly inconsequential changes cause differing results.

Why? I'm asking experts to clarify vague generalities they've painted with wider than typically accepted brush strokes. Maybe some don't really know everything there is to know about a subject but are afraid to fall off such a high horse for fear of others finding out is was really only a pony?statsystems wrote: ↑Thu Jun 07, 2018 2:01 pmFrankshaft wrote: ↑Thu Jun 07, 2018 2:00 pmYou just summerized the answer to all your questions on the 50 degree seat thread, lol.groberts101 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 07, 2018 1:51 pm

Beat me to it. Make a decision about what you want to do and move on.
