30 isn't heavy and is a recommended oil. Sheesh, everyone is sooo worried about their oils and I feel that it's gotten out of hand. Use the weight that is recommended in the owners manual. Brand names are generally better oils. Follow the oil change intervals as per the owners manual and the engine will last a long time. Wanna use pure synthetic?, great!, but only use it in an engine that is new but has already been broken in. Wanna use dino (not dyno) juice?, great!, use it. Got a performance engine?, use what's recommended by the engine builder. Simple. Okay, Mike, as to your question about the jets and such...can't help you, I have Dellortos. But I have a Dell carb manual. You need a Weber carb manual. I know Haynes makes such a manual because I saw one for sale at the parts store I frequent (during my baffle launching week it was rather frequent :) If you can't find a manual then lemme know and we can discuss shipping one out to you. For those of you who are curious the place is Discount Import Parts and their phone number is (503)626-7036 (that's Portland, Oregon).
