      I’m having an issue with tuning my power valve and I haven’t been able to figure out what the issue is. No matter how many clicks in (as well as fully closed) or out, my power valve kicks in at around 10,000rpm every time. I’ve cleaned the unit fully and changed the exhaust matting and nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

      If it’s opening at 10,000 +/-, you can turn it in/out all the clicks you want, that won’t change things by more than a few hundred rpm (fine-tuning, not big adjustment).

      Check this out… might give you some answers…
