I have just purchased an rb tm 323 engine, I have broken it in and it runs strong in a straight line, however it leans (and stalls) when I make a left turn, and richens itself to almost stalling when I turn right. I have tried fuel filter, check valve in pressure line, different loops,hooks,hoops in fuel line and nothing made a noticable improvement. Have you had this problem, do you have any aftermarket things on yours? ie...fuel filters, line, line length?
Thanks for any help you can give me as I have already missed 2 races dues to this problem
Thanks Again
Parker.

that could be it to, when mine was cracked and everything, i couldnet tune it and the engine did what ever it wanted

No I haven't tried another tank as of yet, I don't think I should have to run a different tank as this is not a problem all revo owners are having, just an unfortunate few. I have checked the tank for leaks and there are none present, I have alos changed the tank O-Ring just to be safe.As far as me taking it back to my LHS, I live in Canada and bought this engine via the internet through an E-Bay Store, due to the fact that I could not find it anywhere in Canada, so I figure as far as warranty on it goes I'm SOL. I have tried shortening my fuel line so it's only as long as it needs to be, but that made the problem worse. I must add also After my first post I went to fiddle with it some more, and noticed that after it leans itself out, draning the fuel line, when I try to restart it if I open the throttle with the remote the gas drains away from the carb, if I let go of the fuel on remote it sucks towards engine. Is this normal for this to do it? I am not an rc mechanic nor do I claim to be so any help is appreciated. Thanks to the replys so far.
Thanks

your problem is the tank. it might be difficult but bet you a tank that has a clunk in like they use in planes. buggy racers coil there fuel line to fix this problem, but a clunk will be best in the long run

Good day,
Just to update ya on this f'n problem. I mounted the fuel tank in between the front body posts and it ran like a dream, no lean left, no rich right, no leaning at 1/2 tank like others complain of. My question other than ***, is why would this work better when the tank is ahead of the engine, and how do I remedy this problem as I run an rc solution roll cage and mounting the tank up front would be impossible. And a body would never clear it if it was up there. Any comments or input is greatly appreciated as at this point i'm up for any ideas or suggestions.
Thanks
Parker

run a 8th scale tank on the right side when looking at the revo from behind

Quinlan

Is there a brand or style that is better than others?
Thank You

why would running a bigger tank make a differnce? its still going to get low.

it is a better tank 8th scale tanks have more of a consistent pressure rather then a stock revo tank which people are having problems with
