Gah...and this is where I always get confused...lol.

Let me see if I understand your statement correctly; reducing the amount of oil in the fuel actually means there's more fuel going through the carb to combust; and that's what makes it richer...right?

It's a memory stretch, but I think what resolved the spooge issue from the Q on my 300 was using a richer pilot jet (went from 35 to 38) and a leaner needle (N3CH #3 - feedback from KTMTalk). That combination eliminated the spooge and kept the throttle response spot on.

Given my previous success using Amsoil, I'd prefer to keep that a constant.

So, how to go about reducing the spooge? I don't mind a little, but there's a significant drool stream down the bottom of the pipe after every ride. One other thought, I also have the a/s at 1.75 turns out.
