For ALL not "believers" of Go engines simply-try again...seriously
Anyway I still have a question about how you Guru measure idle gap of .7-1.0 with venturi or without, because I found today in late evening practice a difference and even maybe a key for me...I used a IRDC ventures.
Please share


I can say, for me, I found that best and easiest way to get wake up engine is,
idle gap, take some of the wife needles .6 or .8 whatever for idle gap.
put HSN about .5-1.in. put LSN about 1.5in AND forget about HSN.... just adjust LSN NOT by hour, but 1/2 hour and YOU will see where is power!!!! Seriously, this evening after adjusting of 3tanks I pushed down throttle to 75% because that was DEWIL.. with 086 pipe in buggy and M2C soft clutches, longer pressure pipe, lower head...
Sorry, but who say, Go engines is hard to regulate it is not true, just try, BUT more accurate!!!! peace

on the other go tech thread grizz wrote down a very interesting comment on tuning whether it be a go tech or aother brand .....
for the guys have difficulties read what he wrote it was good makes sense

We tried a Nova 9901 pipe on a Ebm5 last weekend, was a very good combo, we liked the Dynamite 086 but this gets better mileage.
Seems like quite a few are having trouble with breaking in motors, this is one expample of why it's important to buy from a local Hobby shop or a dealer that can answer your questions. It is worth the extra $ to have it broken in profesionally, properly broke in motors last many more gallons.

I'm a new user of GO motors/engine (GO 21 5 port) first I'm a bit of a newbie on tuning and use to tune the HSN first before the LSN, I got the hang of it slowly yet surely but still not an expert. When I switch to GO it a different story for you have to set the LSN first before the HSN or leaving it to default setting. I'm happy with my GO motor still learning from it, together with the Dynamite 086 pipe I can get around 10m32s which amaze me.btw using the smallest ventury I can. I never had much fun using the GO motors/engines power wise no doubt about it just enough for my buggy soon will try it out on a truggy for fuel economy, my LRP z28R is just a fuel hog.
Thank you to the people supporting this thread for it I learnd and still learning. I would happily recomend GO motors/engines to anyone.

If you go from a big restrictor to a small you may have to lean the motor slightly and vica versa, due to the differing volumes of air being passed into the motor affecting the mixture.

It usually wont run long enough to run figure 8's, LOL I get it running, feel good about setting it down, go out the garage and maybe get the 1st 0 of an 8 and will die. It's not as tight with pinch as it was. I can turn the flywheel over by hand now, whereas when it was band new- no way! had to use a heat gun to get it to turn on the starter box. Now it will crank by itself, so ......anyways, its a challenge continues....
I went back ou to the garage last night to take engine apart and was like,crud, that was the wrong engine I was talking about,LOL So yeah the 5 port is still tight as hell, its all good. And I took a straight edge to the HSN and LSN to get flush and then went .5 in with HSN and 1.25 with LSN. Runs much better. idled in garage for quite awhile and temps hit 230 but as soon as I took it out and ran it around the driveway(i can do 8's now!) it went down to about 180-195.

I'm a newb to the GO engine and still learning where to find info let alone absorb the info. Very excited about what I have learned on this forum. Thanks to all for contributing.
BTW, love your country and people! Spent last October there touring around Sydney, Melbourne, Uluru and Lizard Island. AU Rocks!

LMFAO, sometimes I have to stand and think, Barry, Your an idiot! The whole thing about pinch? Forget it, I realized later in the evening, dude thats the 3 port from last summer that turns by hand (whole summers racing in the buggy). I had switched the 5 port from truggy to buggy cause its easier to deal with on the starter box. And so when I went to the truggy and piddled with it, like wow this turns over alot easier now.......

Thanks for the info, due to current situation a bargain is just what I'm looking for. I'm not concerned about the warrenty but not knowing about New vs Old my concern would be parts. the gen 5 parts are still available? Where can I learn more about the GO, new vs old, avialable product, distributers, etc?
