RE: DLE-85 85cc Gas Engine at troybuiltmodels.com
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in"><div style="margin-bottom: 0in">I just got my DLE85 and my first impression is that it is a nice DLE engine. I do wish they would have swept the spark plug back like the DLE55r, some builders like to stuff the larger engines in the cowls and use them for ballast instead of using a pound or two of led. The muffler is oversized and not really useful for those that are using this engine for there scale frames. Aftermarket mufflers will be available in a few months. I am building my own to fit my plane. I like the throttle linkage and the chock has two arms, one on each side for multiple choke linkage. I like the ISO mount and we will see if the bushings last. I’m sure they can be replaced during maintenance. So far I like the looks of this engine.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0in">
