I have a problem child
03 viper with fresh top end
My mag side plug is light gray in color the other two look good
Carbs were cleaned twice
Raised needles to 4th groove
Fuel screws two turns out
Still no change on mag side plug
Moved meedle to 5th groove on mag side
Went 3 turns out on mag side fuel screw
Still same color on plug?????
I'm at a loss

Sprayed starting fluid around every gasket,boot,seal with no change in rpm.

Looked in overflow while it's running.....not seeing bubbles at idle but will bubble at part throttle.Now sure if that's from the flow of the water pump or head gasket?

Anyone have any idea what's going on???? I'm ready to part it out!!!! Lol
 

it likely has a bad mag side crankseal then, you cant get spray around it with stator and flywheel on it, its inside the case.
 
more then likely the bad mag side crankseal that took out the first one.....
 
^^^This. Second time same cylinder I would pull the motor and change crank seals if it were me since you already went through the carbs.
