Ok,back ground,
i got this engine almost 2 years ago. It has maybe two gallons on it but they are hard gallons, i got the motor when it had 1/2 a gallon on it, i knew the guy personally so i know thats not a f'ed up number. I tried learning to tune with this thing, this engine also has many run aways due to radio issues. The last time it ran it caught fire due to a runaway and they slammed it to the ground which broke the clutchbell and sparked and it went up in flames and its been sitting since.


Well tonight i seen it so i tore it apart, inside looks pretty good, bearings are ok, not great but not bad. Im not looking to put money into this, i wont be racing this but it would be cool to have an engine to f around with.


My question is this, what is the recommended shimming for this engine, as well as glow plug and pipe? there is only one copper shim in it right now, idk the measurement, the glow plug is a standard is p8. Thanks for the help

use the 2035, it should be good with that, anything more topend oriented will help drive the thing better lol, I have more than enough of the shims i will send. I may even have a turbo button or 2
