HPI Nitro Rush engine issuse!!!
Ihave an old HPInitro rush with an .OS engine on it. Ihas breaking the engine in and it was starting up really easy but blowing out a lot of fuel I popped the cooling head off and the piston ring popped out and I can't seem to get it back in any suggestions?

your going to have to play with it. make sure its lined up and try and get the piston to center properly.
Also this is the electric forum you would do better asking in the Nitro, or general forum as you would get way more advice.

I didn't think nitro engines even had piston rings. Are you sure that's what popped off? Or do you mean the gasket that goes between the cooling head and engine block/cylinder to seal the joint?

My guess is the sleeve popped out. Which is what my advice was for it was the only thing I could think of that would seem like a piston ring
