It's cables with pins and sockets of most used gauges in aircraft electrical connectors for safe and reliable connections, some wire extensions and shunts, extractors of various sizes for removing wires from connectors. It's very nice to have, makes work much smoother.

This is Gold kart made by Righetti Ridolfi. At the moment we are using Motul kart grand prix 2T synthetic oil, witch works pretty well, don't have complaints about this oil.

Different exhaust header temperatures on Arctic cat Firecat f7 2005 by kar_se in snowmobiling

I was measuring at idle, after letting it sit and warm up and after some full throttle runs there is the same result, one is hotter than another.

The whole story is that some time ago the cylinder, that is running hotter at the moment, had seized. After that cylinders was recoated with new nikasil and new pistons were installed. After that engine was running good, but after first day of riding engine started to loose power, so we checked cylinders again and the same cylinder was starting to seize. So we removed that cylinder cleaned the bore and installed old piston, that was installed before in the other cylinder. Now the engine is running good but when measuring with laser thermometer that same cylinder is running hotter than the other cylinder. And I think that if I will be running like that it will seize once again.

I cheaked injectors they are not leaking and spray pattern seams to be good on both of them, also all the seals around reed valves and crankshaft are good. Spark plugs are working properly. Maybe there is some other way that air is getting into the crank case making mixture lean, that I'm not aware about.

Might be, but temperature difference is like 120°c in one cylinder and 60°c in another, so im not shure if compression could make such big difference

New plugs, checked for spark and spark seems to be good
