Thanx. I did not get back to you as I focussed on the other thread, sorry.
I will put the engine back together and try to get a run on it.
It had red thread locker on it, so I will add some fresh stuff and put it togrther.
Its a bit busy, snowy and cold at the moment here in Ottawa..
Its probably a lot nicer Wx wherever you are ;^)
Cheers

Red threadlock/Locktite should
NOT be used for anything other than something you never want apart. Blue Locktite/threadlock is what you want to use if you need it. What screws had red threadlock on it?
We have a high of +20°F with some wind. Its +10°F right now at 8am Central time. I ran my SS30 the other day and actually had a propane heater going in the garage to thaw my fingers out between prop changes. It got so cold, I had to use a putty knife to scrape the Castor sludge off my test stand and concrete floor. I still dont know why, but I giggled like a little school girl doing this. This gnarly thick oil is almost all I use anymore.
