Default Engine head problem and help me.

Im not having a good weekend...[]I didnt even run my truck today. I went out and tried to start up the OS and to my surprise nothing happened. Turns out 2 holes under the engine head are stripped. I called up Tower hobbies and they gave me a number to OS engine support. So i call up OS oh wait, they arent open because its a holiday weekend.[sm=tired.gif]

im really mad, tierd and broke, infact i threw my GT out the window 2 minutes ago. I Never had any problems with OS until today. Im this close || from quitting the hobby.[&o] its just too much. :[

I had the same problem with my crappy dynamite...I had two options...dye the holes one size bigger and get bigger screws, get a new crankcase, or just get a new engine...I hated it anyway so I got the new engine...hope this helps

This stinks though, the 1 time im actually good to an engine(keeping it nice and clean, not leaning it 24/7) it craps out on me. []

I know it doesnt seem like much, but its a great engine to bash with. the price is good for it, i guess i got a lemon. i had one just like it before and had no problems with it until it blew up from over-leaning.

I guess its time for ICT's GT to be kiked up a notch? [:-]
