I have a new Axial .28 and I just turned the carb around so that it will work on my X and now the fuel nipple is facing the wrong way. I really don't want to screw up the settings.

Do I just loosen it a bit and turn the nipple itself around and then tighten it back to the position that it was or what? I have read a similar post and do not quite understand if I loosen it and turn it. What hole am I supposed to line up.

Thanks in advance.

Ok. I feel STUPID[sm=red_smile.gif]

I figured it out. Sorry for the stupid post.

Did you seal it?

You know how hard it is to find a good sealant here in Japan. I just ordered some from the states and I guess it will re-do it before I drop it in the truck.

Yeah,I didnt listen to anyone when I got my Axial .28 and then I broke it in and tried to tune it, and it had an air leak on the plate behind the pull start. Check it out the o-ring back there was very thin and crappy on mine, that was the culprit. I sealed the whole engine and it runs like a champ with 30%nitro. If it has a bad seal it might be easier for you to find a better o-ring over there for it than finding copper hi-temp sealent.

I didn't have to seal mine-yet. Luck of the Irish I guess.[8D]

I just broke mine in and i didnt have to seal anything. starts in 2-3 pulls. with the nipple [sm=red_smile.gif],i just loosened the fuel inlet and twisted the whole thing around making sure the little hole in the brass sleeve lined up with the nipple

The place that I was going to order it from in the states wont ship over here. So after some extensive searching, I actually found a tube of Permatex Copper. I just ordered it. Can you beleive that it cost me 2,000yen. That equals about 25$ US. [&o]

yikes thats more then double what you buy it for here in the states.

That's the price I have to have to pay to have quality american goods here in Japan. Like I said in one of my previous posts. Time to move back home. LOL
