can't believe my luck. i was all set to run both my 80 and 200V this past weekend, and then came down with the flu of all things..........oh but today i feel 100% better...........this weekend it will happen though, and right now i have K&B1L plugs installed in both engines for test stand running, but i will be switching to the OS F plugs, so i'll take some reading (mostly at idle) and report to which works the best.
i'll be using Cool Power 10% as it's all synthetic.

I found a home for my LASER .70, it ain't purty but I enjoy flying this plane, I have flown the Kombat 60 with an Enya .46 MKII Saito .80, Saito 1.00, Fox .60 and .74 both as glow and Diesel and now the LASER. It turns a Graupner 12x7 at 10,300 on WildCat 5% Premium/16% lube that is 80/20 syn castor. A GloDevil 4c Special is the plug. This is an older LASER with clamps holding the carb and muffler instead of grub screws.

Thank you for your answers, I found out when looking more close to what I've done to the engine that I was way off with the valves, instead of .002" - .004" I had about .015".
Have put an OS F plug in and moved the tank 3" forward, hopefully I will assembly to night and crank it later tonight.

No,it's the other way round. The older Lasers had the grub screws. The newer ones have the clamps.

Thanks, I had a 1992 Laser 1.80 V-twin and thought perhaps this .70 was older, perhaps not though.

I can only say, holy crap what an engine to run smooth . I don´t know if it was the valve setting or the change to a F plug but the engine ran like a train, it didn´t matter what i did with the plane in the air, the engine just went on like a dream with no fuzz what so ever and that is in a 3D profile plane that can do a spin in insane speeds. Now I´m just waiting on my tachometer so I can get som rpm readings. Laser is an engine to salute.

Well I finally got my tacho readings today and with an 13x5 Masterairscrew, 10% Cool Power with 17% oil I got about 10300 rpm, now I'm awaiting my APC 14x4W and see if it's any difference that is worth the extra money for the prop.

No 360 owners out there?

What about Laser 180 owners then, on yet another project I have Iam considering replacing a Moki 1.8 in my Brian Taylor 1/5 Spitfire with a Laser 180. Question I have is what is the overall hight of the 180 from center of crank to top of rockers??? need to fit this within the cowl if its going to work...

Cheers- Marty

Marty, I have a Laser 180 in a Nieuport Triplane (page 4 of this forum). I can't get to the engine to measure at this time, we're moving, but it's approximately 5". The engine is perfect for the 17 lb triplane but it won't be as strong as your Moki 180.
