Engine re-build
I am kinda new to RC, Ihave a RC10GT I bought used about 9 months ago, and bought a new MGT 3 months ago. What I would like to know is, what are the indicators that you need an engine re-build?

RE: Engine re-build
No or low compression, hard to start, will not run properly. The first one is a dead give away the other to can all so be caused from other problems like tuning, air leaks and so on. Most motors will last a minimum of 5 or 6 gallons of fuel and have heard of engines run as much as 10 to 15 gallons.
The best way to check a motor after you have some time on it is to take it apart and check it out. Are you having a problem and if so more information would help in assisting you.
