Header Wrap Problem?

[Notch]

Check your exhaust header torques. I suspect a leak.

My X1 started popping right at 3000, especially on decel. I had assumed intake problems but was shocked to find a broken exhaust stud and obvious leak at the header.

It may be a good time to pull your exhaust studs and replace them before they snap and install fresh gaskets and retaining rings. Cheap insurance so you don't have to drill out some busted stud down the road.

Not 100% on this, but did you have to remove the carb to do the header wrap? If so, you might have a vaccuum hose off. Sounds to me like both issues might just be a vaccuume leak. If it runs with the choke out a little, all you are doing is readjusting your A/F ratio. You are running real lean. Like Lefox said, check all your connections, but not just on the exhaust. Check the intake system as well.

I had to adjust my ilde a little. Went on 3 hour trip in June she ran fine.
