Back plate temprature ?

[lancedoze]

I am running the os 50 hyper with coolpower 30%. What is the recomended temp for the backplate ? I am running about 130 deg. My needle valve is open about 1 1/8 turns. Is this right ?

I run 20% nitro at about that needle setting at 2000 HS and this gives me a backplate temp of 150F so I think 130 is fine - perhaps a click on the rich side but this is better than going too lean

If it doesn't burn my finger when I press the backplate, it should be good. Use a temp gun if you don't want to risk burning your fingers or if your hands are sensitive.
