I've been experiencing some problems with my xtm .18. Every time I run it, oil sprays out of the space between the pipe and engine.
What's wrong?[]

try replacing the gasket, or just try tightening the manifold screws.

check for a leak, whether it be bad gasket or (somehow) a crack crankcase

Thats one thing I've been wondering about. I'm used to aircraft engines so my idea of gaskets are white cardboard looking things.
Now, on a car is the gasket that rubber thing on the back of the engine?

the gasket is the pice that goes inbetween the manifold and the engine, its like a cardboard material.

heres what they look like [link=http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXDTA7&P=ML]http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXDTA7&P=ML[/link]

hmmm, I may be wrong, but when I pull up info on an xtm .18 I get this:


If that is what he has, he needs this:

depending on the engine then its either a rubber ring or what slipknot showed you

ohh, i didnt know the xtm had an exhaust port like that.

I have that thing, but mine is red.

The XTM .18 doesn't have screws it has a spring the only thing I can think of is to replace the spring or the "red" thing called the gasket
