It was really sluggish and it was really slow today. I know not to lean it out to raise temps, but how do you guys keep the temps good when running on a day like today?

You could put some foil on the head to get temps up.

wrap a rag or old sock around the head a couple of times and hold it on with a rubber band.

I always went the foil route. That is how I broke in the revo actually. Works great and you can always tear a bit off if you are getting too hot.

Do leave the top open, but I'm stating the obvious, right?

Yeah I think that's obvious... if not he would find out when he craked it open and found it to be at about 400. That would be an ugly look to capture on film... Big Grin good luck... just watche the temps because they get a littl weird when it is wrapped.

As long as the temps are 200+ it's fine. If it was really sluggish I would have to say a leaning of the HSN is in order, IMO
