Well for the first time, I added fuel to my MTR-2S and she fired up on the third press of the rotostart button. Not bad for sitting on the shelf for a longgggggggg time.
The settings are still the same as when I pulled the engine out of my MXT-2S. It is only like 86 degrees out today and I did noticed the Infinity getting about 290 on the temp.
But had plenty of smoke. I let it idle for about 6 seconds and it got back down to 240..... I remember someone else saying their Infinity likes to run warm also.....Kuppler? Redharris?
I still don't have the jumping down pat yet...... I still want to do a nosedive......

ehroof

running at 290, while running hard in hot weather is not that bad.  To keep the nose up, keep on the throttle a until your ready to hit, then let off.

jpilkinton

OK, I will try that....
The only other thing I need to do is re-adjust the throttle arm linkage. As of now the carb only opens up 1/4 of the way. I only did that to run a few more tanks(after break in) before I let her rip.
As soon as my daughter gets home, were going to a development area and I'm gonna run the crap outa this thing.............. Lots of WOT runs.....

ehroof

nice bro, looking forward to seeing some video.

jpilkinton

Just back in from some run'n... I only have one word for this MTR-2S.......WOW!!
This thing is a rocket. I only had to make one carb adjustment to allow continuous WOT runs.
I only ran 3 tanks of fuel but had total runtime about 30-40 minutes... Good fuel mileage.....
Very hard to control on a gravel road....not much easier on dirt either.........
I flipped it, cartwheeled, and rolled it over several times and didn't break a thing. [sm=thumbs_up.gif]
Working on video now..

I ran today...kind of. I had something in my HSN, so I had to clean that out...I'm really not sure what it was. looked like a metal burr or something. thats cleaned out, so great, car's running fine...then a couple passes and wouldn't ya know it...I lost a grub screw. Eddie, which screw is needed for the dogbone connector on the rear diff of a syclone? I think its a 3mm, but I can't be certain.

Redharris

I was Planning on running the MXT2S today.......
Went Over her and Tightened a few screws and made a few adjustments......around Noon.....
Too Hot to run (102 deg) so was waiting til late afternoon when the temps drop just a bit.....
So I'm workin in the Yard in the Meantime just doing a few small things, when I start to feel a lil Nauseous from the Heat (that Never happens to ME!) and I go in to lay down for a few minutes in the Nice cool Air conditioning.......And Wake up 5 hours later and it getting Dark outside!!!!!

Guess I must be gettin OLD too, Dammit!.....Lol....

kuppler

ehroof

yes, 3mm, always check and loctite those grub screws, they are always a pain, one of my ofna's always looses them no matter what i do.
