New piston and sleeve about time for a use one

your channel has helped me so much. but just going off of your words i would say that you need to start practicing the top dead center method after you run your engines and start using after run oil after every use. Not using that top dead center method has to be be doing something improper to it. But that's just my huge guess. any ways still a great learning video my friend👊🏾👊🏾

With these higher compression engines I do keep them away from TDC, they’re hand made and have much better quality to them so best to look after them. Other mass produced ones I don’t bother lol.

was talking to a 20 year seasoned ic car enthusiast the other day and he said hes never used after run oil in his whole 20 years of racing r/c cars. He said if you wanna lube the cylnder or the carb give it little 25% nitro just a drop from an inkjet cartridge syringe so it doesnt gel.

People who were born after the 90’s can’t even dream up or fathom how real men built and serviced engines and all that jazzz Today kids think revving the heck out of cracked piston rings will fix a tired engine lol

That is a very nice buggy, thanks for sharing 👍🏻

love the s workz mate.. sorry i havent been about, i been in a mental hospital for a month :/

I've got a favourite myself , I actually love my ansmann terrier 2.0 , although it likes to chew through clutch shoes , it's a wicked nitro for a dirt track and control

Back in the day ,we didnt give a fek about destroying a engine just as long as we had fun an caught it on vid ,we turned & burned them an just bought another!..🤣😂 Now these days you got these almighty gear heads that treats their stuff like fragile glass! I have an older vid about those fun days! Awesome vid ,thats why I like your content!..💯👍👊

After all I am pretty happy that I didnt buy a Nova, eventhough I thought they are nice. I think it speaks for itself when you buy 2 engines and having trouble with both. Sorry mate. Luckily I dont have such problems. p.s. i dont think that the big amount of compression on the b3 is normal. I dont have it either but the power with mine is awesome :)

AHH man honestly your videos are class. I love how you just don't give a feck. I always use these same methods like wee all did growing up. Anyone saying different are either lying or just snobs hehe. Keep making videos dude.

hi bud, good content i watch them all usually, the only thing i ever disagree heating the engines up time and time again. i have never ever had to use any heat on a nitro and it make a difference lol odd case if its freezing temps etc might help but we don't need heat its warm in the uk :)

@HaggardRC

Ай бұрын

You’re right, but I paid money for that engine heater so I’m gonna use it to get my moneys worth. However, high compression engines designed for racing will need warming up before starting. They’re too tight otherwise. Normal engines will start fine at ambient temps 🙂

Ise a cable tie to get sleeve out . Allso never take your plug out without having your car on its side. Thats how u ended up with a scored piston

@HaggardRC

The piston is scored because the C clip came out. It was a common problem with the early B3.
