Engine Temperature
 
I know what that the temp should be around 200-250 but is that C or F? Mine right now is rich (spitting out fuel) and is hitting almost 300F so I am guessing that it is C(correct me if I am wrong)

wow, that hot. It is usaullu around 200 - 250 F . The only engine i ran so hot was my S-25. which engine are u talking about. If it is still spitting out fuel an the temps are around 300F then the HSN is to lean and the LSN is to rich. Try retuning it. !!

It doesn't matter what your temps are, provided that you have tuned properly.

Always tune by performance and sound, never by temperature or smoke.

Nah I didn't tune it yet...that was the very first time that I started it...

Edit: Though the stupid clutch spings on the Himoto Syclones suck...people have said things about them...but mine broke after driving for like 2 mins...Guess on Sat I'm goin to get the Traxis spring
Edit: nevermind...isn't the clutch...I guess it got stuck on and the gear box got shredded (the main gear inside spun around and the bar holding it there fell out

Fixed the gear box :) got a coat hanger and made myself a little pin to fit in and hold the gear from turning without the axle
