Anyone else having problems with a SE engine?????
Over a year ago I bought a new SE 32 engine. It so happens that it was right here on RC Universe. Anyways, a friend of mine who has been modeling over 30 years, with at least 20 years in gas engines has been helping me.
We mounted the engine into my AT-6 Texan. Everything we tried would not make the damn thing start. The carb will NOT suck gas from the tank. Sent it back to the guy (rep) I bought it from. Over the phone he said that the thing starts and runs great. Sent it back to me. But as our season was ending, I didn't do anything with it till now.
You guessed it, won't suck gas! The top of the piston looks just like new!! Yeah, I'll bet he started it and it ran great!
It's got a Tilliston Carb on it (Wallbro design). Can anyone help me with this damn piece of crap????
It's the VERY LAST SE engine I will ever, EVER waste my money on!!! Save your money, buy anything but an SE!!!
