R/C Tech Forums - Tekno NB48

your going to ruin that carb. if any carb needs to be pulled straight its a werks carb. the way it is set as it pulling it also twisting. How about some people post some pics up their linkage set ups to help out.

Thats what I was trying to say but you were much clearer haha... I can post pics of mine when i get home but as everyone has said, the carb needs to pull straight out and the linkage should stay straight and parallel with the carb as you pull the throttle otherwise you will cause leaks in the carb.

RokleM, you have too much oil on your filter. Squeeze it with a paper towel until all the dark blue spots are gone.

As others said, getting he linkage lined up with the slide is crucial. Having an angle can cause carb wear and make your throttle hang. Get that straight first, then deal with the air filter.

i saw someone mention they used the JQ "L" aluminum servo horn for the throttle/brake on NB48 but how did you do it w the bearings and swivel where the throttle linkage connects to the horn?

You will have to use something like this instead of the bearing and swivel setup.

Yup, agreed. I just pulled a fresh one out of the package to test with. I already removed the excess. They come pretty soaked in the package, which is better than dry for sure.

Thanks. After a lot of trial and error, I think I finally found the sweet spot for this motor. I can't get the carb really in a straight line and clearance is only about 3.5mm, but it's better than I had. Any more to the left and I don't have enough clearance. Any more to the right and it's right at the filter.

This is how I have the linkage set up with my Werks motor. I would agree that your carb isn't going to have a long life like that. It'll lock up on you being tweaked like that.
