Has anyone here had any trouble with nitro rusting your engine. The LHS guy told me it would and sold me some after run stuff that suposedly keeps it from doing that. Also I think I might have gotten a few specs of sand in my air intake, is that really bad?
Thanks

If you leave it in there for a while yes it will rust, the model fuel attracts moisture which is bad.
Ideally when you done running pinch off the fuel line or pull it off so it runs dry, then put some after run oil in it and crank it over a bit and your good to go. I never have done this and have never had a problem FWIW.

Hey I just read this in the BB manual. HPI sells something called HPI Nitro Cleaner. Maybe you can use this to clean your engine. Thought anyone?
