Heavy Buildup on Intake Valves

Pulled of my manifold and this is what I found. I figured a little blow by is ok but this is pretty heavy buildup and cooked on. Bike has 13K babied miles.

I would say running too rich.....

Valve guide issues or the blowby gases caking the intake valve. I'd lean towards the second since you have the S&S rocker boxes. Running your breather hose to a filter near frame level certaintly would eliminate that variable. A quality fuel system cleaner or spray could help eleminate some of that as well. Just be careful that it's compatible with the gas tank lining.

Don't baby it... Jump on it and do it often ..it has the added benefit of keeping a smile on your face and helping the local economy just ask any LEO

The throttle is on the right,Use it once in a while....In other words "BEAT THE BITCH ONCE IN A WHILE" she might like it!

normal. same as mine except for the fine ass port job.

could use some techron additive in the fuel. or spray some deep creep into the intake as its running to burn it out.

Thank's guys, I've been filling up pretty much anywhere with 91. I'll be sticking to Chevron for now on to see if it clears it up any. May even run a little seafoam in there too.
