well i dont have any experience with the t-15 engine but with my os 18cv-r i keep it around 250-280 F and with the climate were i live it runs like a beast, and why are you running 16% nitro you should use 20% for better performance
ORIGINAL: kakavia

@ murawskiallen : Thanks mate for the information. I was too looking for these two. I own the .15 engine

I want to set a question. In what temperature should the engine work? Yesterday I had maximum 120 C (or 248 F).
I run a 16% Fuel.

In the shop that I bought the fuel has only 16% and 25% and I preferred it.

Hey there kakavia...
I've been using the 25% that I bought down in Thessaloniki and it burns really nice and clean. Its the morgan-sidewinder stuff.

You will find that the type of fuel used really contributes a lot to the power and performance of your MT 2.

I have a problem with my MT2 and I was hoping to get a few suggestions. About a month ago I got my T-15 motor all tuned up and got to run my car for an extended period of time. While driving it I somehow stripped the rear wheel hubs. I ordered some new ones, installed them and went for a run. I cranked it up and realized that it was not rolling very smooth, almost like it was grinding. I checked out both differentials and neither was stripped, so I took out the front drive shaft. After removing the front drive shaft and only running in rear wheel drive the car ran smooth. Any suggestions would be great!

check your steering linkages make sure they are tight and check all the screws around the steering knuckles as well

why would the government want to develope a new kind of rc engine with fuel injection. the fact is if somebody were too make one there would be way too many small parts it would be near impossible to maitain not to mention a pain in the butt to tune

@ knowledge :
I have to admit that you have a very clean car.
As I can see you are waring tarmac tyres. You run your RC on road?
Once I tried, the suspension was too soft and it was lifting the front tyre in the turns.
Have you changed your suspension or you run it with the original configuration?

Are you kidding[X(]why would the government make an FI system for such a small engine????????? BECAUSE ITS THERE[:-] why else would they do it.[sm=confused.gif] Some dude will get a grant and develope it for national security or something like that.[sm=angry.gif] I hope you aren't under the impression that tax dollars are spent wisely.[sm=48_48.gif]
