Which RB plug?
I found these:

http://www.amain.com/rb-products-ver...plug-4-1/p4743
And there’s this LRP that looks like it might be good:

The Duratrax Carbons I’ve been using are short too. I’m wondering if that’s been part of the problem.

I just remember coming across several of those engines back in the day they came in hyper OFNA cars I think. Not one ran good. Could have been worn out but every one of them, Possibly. As far as tuning I have been helping racers tune .21 buggy engines for about 15 years. I started out with inexpensive force 4 and 6 port Taiwan engines about 20 years ago and they ran without issues for a long time. The hyper engines just had terrible carbs and lost compression quickly in my opinion. I always recommended they get another engine. It ran crappy. end of story.
I have ran/tuned/modified/used many of these engines and still do. There are many different types of this engine and they all use the same carb. I find the carb. to be adequate and the piston/sleeve fitment is usually good for at least twenty litres of fuel.
Sure it is never going to compare to the latest three hundred dollar mill, but for the money it is fine.
End of story.
