It holds a tune fine. The OS holds one a little better. Not sure where to get parts for it. Just buy a new one.

my pop gets around 5-8 minute run times depending on what he's doing with the picco (high speed runs, jumping, gentle driving ect) with the stock fuel takn, but IMO the O.S is a much nicer engine then the picco, just because it's so easy to live with, and the price difference.
