Thats best If you do that, I found that 0.6 mm gap works best, had spluttering from about 4500rpm, made it 0.6 and all was fine
Power is nothing without control,
Control is not fun without power.
Traction is over rated.

Shot is a nice way to say it, but yes, they are over the hill, Luckily not going to go back in my car!
