Spring Project
I recently brought back my HPI Savage .25 from Calgary to Edmonton, where I had it stored since 2010 or before. I didn't have any after run oil & can't remember what I used as an alternative when I packed it up. I was thinking of going to Hobby Wholesale this weekend & picking up after run oil to put in the engine, just to be on the safe side while waiting for the snow to melt. I just had a look at my savage & was happy to see the tires hadn't developed flat spots, but I figured a good place to start would be new fuel tubing, maybe a glow plug etc. The one thing I will need to do is retune the engine. I had a guy from Modelland in Calgary tuned my engine except I panicked when I was running it at home, & didn't "readjust" the idle screw but either the high or low speed needle by accident. I've been watching a few videos about engine tuning, plus downloading manuals from hpi for my own benefit so far. The photo I added isn't my truck. I wanted to let everybody see the truck, rather than just describing it.
Thanks
