P 120 starter O Ring replacement
 

Hi. Could some kind knowlegable person walk me through replacing the starter oring on a jetcat p 120. Is disassembly necessary or can it be done with some "fiddling". Thanks.Paul.

Dave Rigotti did a great bit on how to replace the starter O-ring for his Jetcat P60: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/fb.asp?m=3048465

I'm sure the same proceedure will work for the P120....

Cheers,

Hi Paul...I personally remove the starter from the engine to replace the "O" ring. Not a big problem, just remove the purple front cover, unsolder the starter leads (remember to mark which post on the starter the blue and brown wire go on re-assembly and you're off to the races. The old "O" ring is sometimes tough to get out, just use a pointed dental probe type tool and it works fine.....Ron

I wonder why JetCatUSA still keeps Oring replacement instructions a secret?
