No, Bob won't part with the decompression chamber thank you, if he had back 20 years ago it would have been put on the market as a product. Again, I am try not to put down the spirit of invention as that is what got me started, but fella's this forum is getting to look more like a machine shop course on how to make an engine and that is not its function. This forum is to encurage models into trying diesel as an easy more reliable system to power their plane, boat or truck. Remeber anytime you have less parts there are less parts to go wrong like in modeler parlence the best glow plug is no plug. This forum is to help models succeed with their diesel engine and to share good expreiences with fellow diesel freeks. The reason we never brought out a four stroke diesel kit is because you could not just bolt it on, the Saito 80 was a mistake in disign so I made the decompression chamber to make work because I bought it and did not know what it was I was getting. It was latter cleared up by Saito with a extra gasket to put under the jug. In this case were Enya put this thing on the market it should have been rejected by the reviewer as a bad idea who's time should not come and it would have been pulled from the market, remember the products you buy are expected to work with minimum effort and are not put there to turn you off or to make you resort to becomming a machinist. Nuff said on this subject those that must write private emails to each other.

Something was brought to my attention the other day regarding a booklet sold on Ebay about how to start and run your diesel. My friend read me the first few parts to the book and I was very troubled by the miss information. In the book the writer tells the modeler to set the carb. just above idle then proceed with the needle and the compression. If you put your diesel at just above idle you could spend the rest of you life trying to start it you must always set the carb. at 1/8 to 1/4 open just like glow. Another statement was to backoff the compression after you are finished for the day. The reason we did not put a handle on our system is so once you set it the idea was to try to forget it for as long as you had to. Diesel is supposed to be as close to set and forget has possible. For those that have lost their directions or don't read the foreign language their written in please don't guess our offer always stand send us $1 and a self-addressed envelope and we will send you our diesel operating instructions, which have evolved over these past 32. years.

P.S. LM Cox sold millions of control line airplanes each year through department stores toy departments. what they did was turn off millions of potential modelers and make people think that all model airplanes and their engines were toys. If a potential diesel user were to com on this forum he would think you would have to be a machinist to redisign your diesel engine to make the dam thing work and he would move on.
