How would someone go about turning the 3250 onto a gas burner??? exactly??

RE: supertiger 3250
 

Add ignition.
Make a better conversion, add ignition and Walbro carb
Best, add walbro, ignition and retap head for a 10mm plug.
Never mind needle bearings on the rod.

RE: supertiger 3250
 

and how would you go about that???

Buy the items from ch-ignitions.
Or from rcignitions.

Think real hard about WHY you want to do this conversion. Its easy to do but cost around $200 for all new parts to do it right.
You end up with a light and lightly built engine with good power. It requires carefull ducting to keep from over heating ( gas runs hotter that glow)

I have one of these and have been thinking about running it on Gas-Glow.

I would have to maintain the same oil content, but believe this would be a good conversion.

No ignition, no bearing changes. Just mix the fuel and try it.

At 1/3 glow fuel and 2/3 gas and a target of 10% oil content I'd have to add 12% more oil to a 10/18 glow fuel
to maintain the 10% over all oil content. .... If my math is right.

I am doing 3 of the 3250's but will put a needle bearing in the rod and a hard pin in the crank , my .90's are turning an apc prop 15x4 w 10500 on average and my 2300 is flying a 1/4 scale edge ( WH ) like a rocket , never have tached it lately but have probably 4-5 gallons of 50:1 klotz synthetic from day one .
