    Status: offline     		yeah it is. anyway, heres a problem. when I put on the glo igniter and pull the pullstart, a whitish vapor comes from around the cooling head-no kidding. The needle valve is at 2 turns, 20% blue thunder fuel.

    Status: offline     		if it is vapor and not fuel it isnt real dagerous. when i run my car for a while i have vapor comin off the cooling head but not when i pul the pull start. maybe it is the type of glow plug u r usin.

    speaking of tuning, when i go to adjust the shift time on my 2 speed, which set screw should i turn? there are two holes with set screws, one has a spring and a ball inside the hole, though... [/QUOTE]

    This is for everybody with an RS4 SS. Make sure that your two speed set screw is to the right of the shaft set screw when your car is facing away from you. If the two speed set screw is to the left, then that cam is backwards. very easy to do, since HPI didn't focus on that in the manual.

    Otherwise, it should shift two turns out and your motor is tuned properly.
