I have a problem here. i can start it easy. but once the glow warmer is away from the plug, it stops.

could it be the cod rod problem? or i have change another plug, still the case.

sounds like a glowplug to me.. or your carb settings are off

Sounds like its rich. Have you tried idleing it up or leaning the LS needle?

Franky

yes, it was too rich, the bottom of the engine is full of fuel.

well, i lean it to 1.1/4 turn, mixture needle leaner too.

now, it is running ok, the temp is only 80-90. very strange.

Hi Franky,
When you are tuning your OS are you winding the mixture screws in then counting the turns out?
If so incorrect,they need to be level with the screw holders then you wind them in.
My favourite hopups are,cen head,A5 os plug and flowing the manifold+ internal work.

Franky

thanks vision,
the main needle is 1.1/4 turns,
the mixture needle is the factory setting, i lean it a little bit.

thank you for advice, it works fine now.

hey can neone tell me how fast it an O.S 12CV engine ??

Omar

iTrader: (15)

it depends on your car or truck, two speed or no two speed and gearing, these are all factors that will effect your speed.

littlewing

oh yeah ..its an HPI RS4 3 and no 2 speed !!!!!!

littlewing - NOT fast enough ... hehehe ... I love the Italian 5 ports.

Maybe so but rear and side exhaust motor's are two different things......
Nice feeling when you run a cvx against a cvr and other side exhaust tourer's and pass them on the main straight......

littlewing

then is the O.S 12CV faster that a GS 15 in the v-one-s ?

2mcgrath

i would say in the rtr rs4 3 with that engine you will be running high 30mph's or low 40mph's

oh okok thx a lot !!!!!!
