Ive been away from the hobby for a while(almost 2 years) and the other day i bought a mini-t so i got back into it, soooooo i decided to start up my good ole evader. I didnt expect it to start up to well but what do you know it started up in less than 10 pulls of the string. At first it idled well with the glow plug on top but once i took it off it would shut off, so i started messing with the tuning a bit and it was working fine until it randomly started accelerating and i had to cut it off and by that time i was sweating like a pig in the hot sun so i let it cool off and brought it in, il probably get back to it tomarow but until then here are some pics

On my Evader, with the position of the fuel inlet, the fuel line rubs against the throttle linkage. How do I remedy that? I was thinking about a zip-tie around the header to re-arrange the route but it seems like that would be too hot. Was thinking about the shock tower but can't really come up with something that seems like it'd work.

Any suggestions?

I have mine going around the other side of the engine i remember that usto happen to me too i just got a longer tube and routed it and around(its close to the header but if you give it enough slack it stay off it) and have had no more problems with it.

shock tower works great!




You can also loosen the brass nut on the high speed needle, and position the fuel inlet anywhere you want.

Thanks for the ideas. I'll work a little harder on this. Didn't realize I could have the fuel line so long.

docphysics: dang, nice rig! And the picture is so clear.

Actually, longer fuel line could be a slight advantage, there is more fuel in the line for the motor in case you flip over and have to run out to it, it will keep it runnin a couple seconds longer, a fuel filter helps that also.

Been offline for quite awhile due to work, and havint been runing my evader much. Got it out today for the first time since like january and in less than five minutes i destroyed my aluminum spur gear and the hardedned steel clutch bell, turned out the bolts that mount the engine to the motor mounts were loose and caused it to rotate alot. Now i gotta wait for new parts.
