Hmmm. I guess it depends on distributor pricing guidlines.
Glow plugs are darn expensive here, so I have priced the new T3 and T4 plugs to be more affordable than the other plugs on the market. Hopefully this will boost sales and get the plugs out there amongst the racers. The rest should take care of itself if people are getting a good product at a good price.
In our currency OS plugs are $20 each (around US$14), RB plugs $18 each. I have put a recommended retail price of $14 a plug on the GO plugs. I figure at $6 less than an OS plug, people will give them a try.

Hey guys, Im looking for a little help on this engine.

Its a Go B21 5+2 and has a turbo head. Its as tight as a nun's chuff and real clean. Had about 2 gallons of Byrons 25% Gen2 through it.

Can anyone offer any assistance with a manual or schematic drawing as I cant find anything on the Go site.

Thanks,

Beds.

what did you need too know?If you do have 2 gallons on it,it's time to change the rod wrist pin. I will try to post a pic of the engine blown up. From your pic it looks like an older style go-tec. Gen-4? possibly? Go here, GO ENGINE CO.,LTD.

Factory settings would be good. Just to clarify, I bought it second hand, so havnt actually run it yet.
Looks like it could be this one http://www.go-engine.com/in-products...15P-P820SG.htm with a turbo button fitted.

That is an older model, not that there is anything wrong with that. It should have the short low speed needle, flush with the high speed and 1.5 turns in from flush on the low speed should be a good starting point.

All Go Engine Factory Settings are FLUSH HSN AND FLUSH LSN . Pipe, Plug and fuel will change the base setting for your LSN so please start from flush.

Gizmatron 11-06-2009 12:58 AM

hey Mark..any news on the new HSN you were designing for the MG66's?

mattwoodcraft 11-06-2009 02:44 AM

i have noticed on my mg66 the LSP needle is a lot richer than the standard moded motors

i had a few small issues when i went for my testing day was a hot day started to lean bog after 4-5 mins of running , i will have to check my needle orings as this is only a new problem i have just encountered with my motor

Hey Rex(22Racer), I received the GO engine parts today.
Thanks for getting me everything that I needed to keep
my ole workhorses going. I like the the looks of the new
GO GX engines, but these old dogs that I own still have
many a gallon of life left in them.
For you guys that are getting new GO GX engines, a word
of advice. Taking the time to break-in your new GO engine
properly is the way to assure that it will last for many gallons
of fuel. If you don't have the time, have one of the GO Engine
distributors that offer a bench break-in service do it for you.
