Tip of the week....
 
Hey all RC fans..I know when you have your engine out of your car,truck,buggy you might want to try this...I know air filter can get in
the way at times...So take off the air filter and put in it''s place a foam ear plug..put it right in the carb opening..it will do the trick for you ..No matter if your
cleaning the engine''s out side case ..or what your doing it will keep crud from getting in the carb and into to engine...Just my 2 cents worth :D

tip of the day- use dry lube like Sullivan dry ice on your clutch bell gears- they will last quite a bit longer then no lube

We want to do our part to help you guys have the very best out there. A guy from Sullivan gave me a bottle at the I hobby show two years ago and man The stuff is GOOD! He was smart- I have reffered that product to many consumers. Great product dry chain lube works the same- I also use this on my cvs's

NEW TIP- when you don't have a temp gun don't run your car.

Have fun out there this weekend guys!

Guess you don't run your nitro Toyz then...You don't need a temp gun..Go by good blue smoke...Besides most temp guns are way off on temp range any way...
The cheap ones from $20 dollars to $50 dollars...You need to spend some serious money for a good temp gun..
What did you do before you ever had a temp gun? OH maybe your from this younger generation..What do you think RC people did 30 years ago that had no way of checking temp...
They went by good blue smoke...Because that is how they were tought back then...So I would not get my hopes just set on using a temp gun..
You can always use the water or spit test on cooling head...Just my 2 cent worth today...
