RE: .18 go engines? and mods???

RE: Engine Comparison... Help?

Yes...

RE: New to the rc boatworld

RE: RB#9 marine3.5 engine

The description says it has a slide carb, which would limit some folks from purchasing it, but it looks like a rotary carb in the pic and in the illustrated parts break-down.

I don't think it is the root of your problem, but I think the MC9 is a bit cold for 40% nitro.

RE: MVD prop shaft strut bearing

problem I had with the MVD, was that the bushing was pretty tight on the stub shaft, and loose in the strut. So I think the bearing was actually spinning with the stub shaft.

RE: where can i get k&b parts ?

I thought car engines were limited to the size of the bore of a carb?? If so, he might be better off getting a carb from another boat engine, before getting one for a car.

RE: o.s..18 cvr-mx crank

No...the CVRMX crank has a pin on the backside of it that is made to engage the starter's shaft. So, without modifying it, I would say no because the crank for the CVR does not have the pin.

RE: will it work (Engine)

I would think, if his budget could handle the $250 price you mentioned, that his best bet would be a weedeater engine (ZEN). Might even be able to find a used one that is in his budget, or close......

RE: Weird Performance from engine

Water does not compress too well...if you sucked in a bunch of water at full throttle, you may have bent/damaged something in the engine.

RE: 20 speedmaster mono
