RE: Pretty sure i blew my engine on my storm
Why? Does the motor not run or can you pull the start cord and have it turn over? I wouldnt run it but check it out before sending it to them. If its full of sand, try to clean it out. You'll need to take the motor apart to see whats up but I would figure the sand may have scratched the cylinder liner. If so, that and the piston will need replaced and Im not so sure HPI will do anything about it as you need the aircleaner on the motor to keep that from happening. Best wishes. Let us know whats up and if we can help. Check out the thread on the Storm as I answered with a few more lines about the steering problem.
