As some of you know, I was asking alot of questions about aluminum and titanium parts. I had planned on making my revo a project more of mechanics and show than a daily basher.

That has all...

Thank you. I also believe there is a leak somewhere, but I am having a heck of a time finding it. I have checked the fuel tank, and replaced all of the fuel line, as well as the pressure line from...

Please do not take this wrong or think that I am offended in any way. I would however like to give a little background on myself so that we can do away with questions such as "How do you know it is...

Good news.........

The truck started right up this evening. I started at the factory (4 turns from closed) settings and actually had to richen it 2 1 /2 more turns before it would run around 250*....

Okay,

Let me start by saying that for someone with my mechanical background and experience this is an embarrassing confession.

As I was cleaning up my work area last night I little glimmer...

It still runs and starts up just fine and as I mentioned earlier, the fuel flow, and glow plug were okay.

It has been returned to the factory needle settings before the last 3 times I have run it...

:lol: How much you wanna bet they tell me to switch back to Top Fuel?:lol:


Thank you guys for all of the great advice and help.

I was also shocked to see 345*.

That was also with the body off.

There is definitely not a fuel blockage. There is a very steady stream of heavy blue smoke coming out of the back. THe resonator...

Any tricks for finding leaks?



Yeah, I have an infared temp gun and I have always checked my temps after every 5 minutes of run time. In this case, the engine startede bogging down really bad...

The last two times I have run my truck it has overheated on me.

It is almost two months old, had a gallon of fuel run through it and it has never overheated once. I know it is not due to the carb...

Thanks for the advice......

If I go the pull start / plug igniter route, am I running the risk of the plug igniter battery dying on me? Do you just keep 2 batteries with you?

I am seriously considering replacing my EZ Start with another method of starting.

I am new to RC and only owned my Revo. Therefore I have no experience with other methods. I feel like there must...

I would also put it in the 4tec as a steering servo. I have seen that thing run and you need all the steering you can get.:D

Well, I hit my LHS after work, picked up a couple spur gears and started takin her apart. I got the new spur gear on, and was not even close to coming in contact with the clutch bell. I thought for...

So I ran into the concrete base of a light pole at about half speed this weekend........I destroyed the front bumper/body mount. The weirdest thing is that the truck bounced straight backwards and...

I ran into the concrete base of a light pole at about half speed this weekend. It destroyed my front bumper/body mount, and somehow as a result of the crash, my spur gear completely stripped.....it...

Thanks for the replies....

I do not plan on trying to use it as a functioning tool, but it sure would look cool on my bench.

It seems that I do not get 75% of my notifications for replies to thread subscriptions........Does anyone else experinece this?

Where can I buy one of those really cool miniature jacks that look like a Craftsman pit jack?

I have a Newb question.

What is an OWB?

I finally lowered the pic size so I could post on here.

Here is the toy table

The only upgrades so far are aluminum shock mounts...

A friend of mine bought a 4-tec yesterday and I was there when he opening it up. I am wondering about the 12' long front body mounts. Are you supposed to trim them down, or leave them long?

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Wifey is gonna have a heart attack when she sees this bill.........

I put together a parts list for all of the upgrades that I would...
