Status: offline 		is this oil to much in a truggy thats running a .21? i ask because this is whats in mine now and my off the line speed isn't to great but once it gets going it flies. the motor is a mega .21. could it be that i just need a bottom end pipe? if so what would give me better low end? right now i'm running a dynamite high torq pipe. any suggestions would be great. exept to learn to type!

I dont think it's your high torque pipe tho, unless the engine just hates that pipe.

Status: offline 		Actually the heavier weight you use in your center diff has a positive effect on acceleration. With that said, 30K may be a little excessive. I use 20K in the center and I like the drive I get out of corners. Take a look at this article, it's definitely informative regarding the use of Diff. oil as a tunning option.

Does anyone have a video how to change the differential oil?

30K is to light for a Revo..Should be running 500K in the center..Most truggys run 10K to 20K in the center..A high torque pipe is a bottom end pipe..The Mega is not a HP motor..could be you need a better motor..by the time you paid for a different pipe you could have at least $50+ for a better motor..
