She also stutters above 3,500rpms. Any suggestions of cause or solutions would be appreciated. Thanks.

If so worth also getting the timing checked out, as mine was similar when the timing had jumped/stretched due to the poor tensioner. Click to expand... Not that I've really noticed but will pay attention when I'm out tomorrow. Thanks.
