Tuning Problem
Hi, Fella's
Having trouble tuning my .21 buggy motor. It idles fine, starts fine, blowing good smoke . In saying that when I pull on the trigger the motor blurts a few times then stops with a puff of smoke at the end. Using 20% nitro and a #6 hot plug from O.S If there is any good tuners out there that could help me with the tune I will be very grateful. Cheers |
RE: Tuning Problem

RE: Tuning Problem
A #6 OS is too cold for 20%

RE: Tuning Problem
Not the best motor I no but it 's what came with the buggy .21 SH or as they say s**t hot.
And with the plug I looked it up on the OS site for glow plugs and on it's scale for glow plugs a #6 plug is there hot plug It was called originally the A3 hot plug. Can you guys suggest then a better plug, and if the motor will run properly and get some good use out of it. Then I can look at another motor any suggestions on a good motor at a reasonable cost of cause as having a family and a tolerant wife ,money for me is in drips and drabs. ie an allowance weekly it sucks but family come first. Cheers. |
RE: Tuning Problem
SH arent bad engines at all, they are actually pretty good engines. but sounds like your a tad rich. but its really hard to tune over the net without seeing or hearing it.
