the settings by drake on that link were right up until the lsn settings were stated ...it was a mis print .....i posted a page back ny needle settings ...you are about where i am at 5 gallons ...so yes you are ok on the lsn settings ...i mean the motor comes 6.5 turns out from bottom on the lsn ...i thought the needle was gonna fall out ....but thats the way these motors work

not unless you really feel you need it ...you are right on point it wont tune sound or looko like a v-spec .it should come out of a corner and have a slight hesitation mid to top and then should spool up smoothly without sounding like its winding out and they dont scream noise wise on the top .that is why people smoked these engines early on because they thought everything should run and sound like a v-spec ...not saying you will never tune the hsn ...but not anywhere near what you would think ....in 5 gallons excluding break in ...i have tuned the hsn 4 times

Hey grp fans im running a .28 tuned in my truggy and ive noticed now after running my truck the motor gets a large build up of oils and dirt around the glow plug ive checked the glow plug to make shure its tight and that the cooling head was all the way tight but it just seems to be leaking. It runs great holds a tune great. i almost have two gallons on it and it usually stays at 210-230 depending on the weather, any ideas?

i have seen o.s. and odonells plugs leak around that area ...there was aproblem early on with swapping glowplugs manufacturers and plugs not sealing up in there ....it is possible it is leaking ...you should be able to see it while its running puddling up around the glow plug ....other than that not really sure other than it does get mucked up in there from time to time?

i cleaned it out and ran a couple tanks a little while ago but there was no build up of dust/oil mixed so maybe it was jsut a little loose we'll see what happens after a few more tanks i never did see it pudleign up either before when i checked it but who knows, thanks for the help.

Bigger restrictors give more top. If mileage is ok you can go up to a 7 and should see some more top end.

well its offical, I cant get my tuned to run right for anything. I tried the drakes settings, didnt work very well. I just want it to idle smoothly and be reliable and not flame all the time
