Default RE: Ignition Batteries

Yippy! I got it runnin' after all. I re-lined the fuel lines and slapped a 1100MaH NiCad in the fuse and after a momentary twist of a starter it fired up. The size I have in it now is 1/16th Tygon. I would still not start after this by hand. I have a long lead of fuel tubing so that I can see the fuel moving thru the line and it also alows me to remove the fuel tank with out getting fuel all over inside the fuse..

The engine sounds great and it realy does sip fuel. I had the 32 oz tank full and it ran at 3/4 throttle for 10min at least and the tank level barely changed. Boy, this engine moves some wind!
