Jackson Hole - BMP dura kit - Running lean

Today was the first day with no oil mixed in the tank and i have 80 miles on the durability kit. I have the exhaust ported and polished pretty harsh, I drilled the 3 holes in the airbox per Bikemans instructions. I rode for the last 3 days with some premixed gas with no issues on the non ethanol setting. Now i rode today and it was so deep i was wide open more than not, the last pull i did i had it pinched for a good 3 minutes to try to get a trail started once i reached the peak the sled wanted to puke when i let off and the engine light was flashing. I shut the sled off and then restarted but had to hold the throttle to the bars to get it to start and run it wants to puke anything less than a quarter throttle. I am thinking the tps is the cause of the idle and engine light, but after this happend i pulled the plugs and they are white with almost no tan on them. I did not adjust the oil pump yet because last year at sea level i burned a ton of oil so i thought it was ok. I think I need to up the oil as well as get the machine hooked up to the computer to clear and check the tps codes. I know the tps is suppose to clear when shutoff but something must be going on i have no icing on the throttle block so i am not sure. I did blow a belt and cords went flying not sure if they hit something and caused a malfunction but it all happend at that long pull. Does anyone have any suggestions. I am going to see if MWP here in Jackson has a boondocker box i can put on to up the fuel, not sure where else to get one besides from idaho falls right from boondocker same day shipped? Any help is appreciated.

hmm...to try and get more fuel pressure till you get your control box you could try and restrict your return line...but that doesn't fix your under 1/4 throttle issue...

white plugs...your on dangerous thin ground here..
 
I think you better do a compression test and pull the head and check for a mechanical problem sorry

I'd be doing a compression test or pull the pipe and have a look. My guess is you won't like what you find.
