I think that GO already switched to the short L.S. needle
in the newer motors.

I just ordered a Go 7 last week. It came with the old LSN I believe. Either way, I don't have any problems tuning.

I have never heard of anyone having trouble getting ahold of Russell or Dana, maybe you had the wrong e-mail address?
If you send me your Lsn I'll rework it for you for free. e-mail [email protected]

Hey guys I picked up a turbo 5 port and need to break it in. I picked up a p3 plug for it and it has no brass washer like regular plugs. Since this is my first turbo engine I just wanted to make sure there is no washer on turbo plugs. Also any tips on needle settings for breakin? Im gonna try to find some 30% but if I cant I may have to run 20%. Thanks

Nope, turbo plugs don't use washers. Not sure what the needle settings are for the 5 port.

To break-in my 5 port I had the HSN flush and the LSN 1-1.5 in from flush. Good luck.

Make sure you have a real strong starter box and heat that baby up with a hot air gun or powerful hair dryer otherwise you will struggle to turn it over. The 5 and 7 port Go Techs have mega pinch when new. Check out the break in procedure on the bottom of page 78 on this forum. Follow this and you will be sweet. Those needle settings are spot on for break in. After 15 tanks or so you can start leaning the LSN toward 2.5 turns in from flush for normal running.

Here's a little video my wife took from round 4 of our points series here in Bama. I'm running my PTM Go 3R with approx. 4 gallons on it.....and I'm the slow red car.


But I did finish 2nd.................
