Would running rich cause these symptoms?  I only ask because there seems to
be a relationship between new (left) heads, bad grounds and running rich.

> Thanks Robert for the reply. I probably gave the wrong impression that the
rpm suddently went up between 65 adn 70 mph. Actually what I mean was at 65
mph, rpm was 3,900, at 70 mph it went up to about 4,100 rpm. It was 3,800
and 4,000 before head replacement. No sudden movement of the rpm.
