You could also use the TOP piston sleeve.
But before that, you should do the following below to check if your piston sleeve needs to be changed.
1. Take out the glow plug and turn the flywheel. If there is resistance, then the engine is maybe OK. If there is no resistance, don't panic. Either case, go to step 2.
2. Put the glow plug in and tighten it. Put a few drops of after run oil in the exhaust outlet of the engine when you could see the piston covering the whole exhaust port. Try to crank the piston to the top and see if there are any bubbles escaping from the side of the piston sleeve when the piston goes to the top. Should not have any bubbles. Bubbles indicate that the sealing is no good.
You should also check the conrod bushing and the engine bearings. Take out the engine backplate. Try to crank the engine upwards with the plug. There should be VERY minimal play (if at all) in the conrod to crankshaft bushing pin. The whole crankshaft should not move up and down as though the main bearing is loose when you try to crank the piston upwards. That's when the bearings are really worned out.
Another way to check the bearings is to leave the crankshaft in the engine alone with the bearings in and without the conrod connected and try to spin the crankshaft. The bearings should not feel rough or loose.

i've noticed that my nsr3 performs best at the 240-260f range, running with 30 nitro, compared to my mt12 that ran at 220f. weather is about 80-90, is it common?

But if it was me, I personally do not like to run it that hot. Sad because once the engine flames out, it's very difficult to get it to start again. Because the carb is aluminum, it gets overheated easily too and fuel never wants to go in until the carb cools down...

I made the switch to O'Donell and it has not happened to me since. I'll never use Trinity again. I had to fatten the needles considerably when I switched to O'Donnell.

Need some information for novarossi engine. Thanx in advance .
I have a RR12L5 that i need to install in a car. Problem is I can't use the SG shaft and so therefore I need to swap out the crank for a standard crank. The RR12L5 is a long stroke compared to the traditional short or square strokes for small blocks, so I'm wondering if the standard cranks from other small block Novas would fit it?

JFC, the newer 3 port NSR Novarossi sleeves come with the IDM style type of porting with "fangs". The 5 port Novarossi ones are just normal sleeves without the "fangs".
