They are wrong. This is the same sort of nonsense we have gone through for 30 years - the problem is not the plug, the tank, the fuel, the prop, etc. It's caused by the excessively wide bypass and the cure is to make the bypass smaller, period.

Yea to me the plug looks like an idle bar R/C plug.
The (burp)cause is low boost velocity and apparently the stick in the bypass helps at least most from what I have read.
Low crank case compression ratio and possibly to big a by pass.
The back plate is the worst match the engine I have ever seen.
I fitted up 3 nice Fox .35s (pre 74?)with stick, as shown in reply #13.
So far have broken in and used one of them.
The stick did not fix.
After making a stuffer back plate it is now 99% better but will still burp and with a big one during hard transition to outsides.
Only thing more I know to do would be to cork the piston, but is it worth the time and rebalance?
The tank wound up being around 1/4 inch above CL of engine to make it this good and toward end of flight the outside of overhead 8 wants to go rich. The uniflow vent restricter is size of smallest pin drill.
I think the real cure for the Fox .35s burp on profiles is an OS .35s.
