Default RE: mounting engine upside down os 46 LA
ORIGINAL: GATTUSO2170

I HAVE A CAP232 THAT I AM JUST FINISHING AND THE MOTOR IS MOUNTED UPSIDE DOWN THE TANK IS ABOVE THE ENGINE CENTER LINE AND THE MUFLER PRESHURE LINE IS ON THE BOTTOM OF TH MOTOR I CAN GET IT TO RUN GOOD BUT WHEN THE PLANE CLIMBS THE ENGINE DIES I THOUGHT ABOUT GETING A NEW CARB AND A PUMP DO I REALY NEED ONE? OR DO I JUST NEED TO KEEP PLAYING WITH THE AIR BLEED SCREW ? ALSO MY FUEL AND FILL LINES ARE IN THE BOTOM TWO CORNERS OF THE TRIANGLE AND THE VENT IS AT THE TOP SHOULD I PUT THE VENT AND FUEL LINE UP TOP AND PUT THE FILL ON THE BOTTOM OR WILL I BE OK
Gattuso,
I had a similar issue with OS 46 LA, but after a while I discover the problem: tank fill tube too short!
before buy pumps or evrithing else, my suggestion is to chek your tank, pressure tube and of course carburation... It may hope to use a little amount of nitro, 5% or more.
