As per Randall's suggestion I measured the needles and at the shoulder they are 0.0975" But they are stamped TW which should be 0.099"
I also checked the compression again and it might be my gauge is giving a low reading because my TR3 is only 115 and it is running great and the head on that was rebuilt 3000 miles ago and my notes say that it was 155 (with a friends gauge before I bought mine).
Do you think I should buy a few lean needles and start experimenting or should I keep trying to find "a problem"
Still at a loss on this one.
