RE: COX 049 Bee mixed parts.

Here's photos of the tank with reed installed.
Not as easy to do as with the e-type spring.
The groove that the reed sits in is just wide

RE: COX 049 Bee mixed parts.

Nice photos François.
Here's some mixed up parts.

I bought this TeeDee .051 new in the box, when I lived

t587y28,
Nice scan. I never thought to use a scanner to photograph an engine.

RE: COX 049 Bee mixed parts.

Tnx Silvaire.
The thread trick has been around forever, but the teflon

RE: COX 049 Bee mixed parts.

Silvaire,
After you've slit a length of tape, twist it an inch or two at a time until
