Put the washer back under the spacer. I believe it is in here in a old thread since I asked the same question awhile back while doing my BAK ... Gotta love this place for all the help.

Make sure you do a wot test to determine your main jet setting. So before you do the 4th put it in the 5th groove and take her out for a wot test. Then go back to the 4th although I am thinking about going to the 3rd groove and see if I can get me mpg back up after falling from 42 to 36 on the last couple of tanks.

Hope this will help and I am sure others will chime in soon .

Went with the BAK instructions and runs good but slight hesitation off idle. I posted another thread on this problem.
