Default Generic Operational Info for Gas Engines

Currently I have [NIB] a 46GT Brillelli, Zenoah G20 EI and a Homelite 30cc conversion to be mounted in various planes. Have read the instructions carefully, but I wonder if there's a website or thread for that matter, that is a "one stop clearing house" for generic info about how to tune, maintain and operate gas engines. Even "RC Gas Engines for Dummies", if it existed , would be great. Any suggestions are welcome! [In the interest of time, I am trying to avoid the piecemeal acquisition of info ]

The manuals that come with engines are good basic guides to go by. Each major brand also has online support as well as consumer support on sites like this. Beyond that, a search in this forum will always turn up answers to specific questions with operation or problems, and if you just can't find it any other way, a post with specifics about what you need to know, will yield much help. A wealth of knowledge is at your finger tips these days.

The BME website has a "universal manual" so to speak that is basically good information. Of course the crank specs./measurements will differ from manufacturer to manufacture. I think this will get you there.[link=http://www.bmeengine.com/BMEdocs/BME_Instructions.pdf]
