Monty,
I have a +4C. Is the "Evolution Engine Blue Block Rust Inhibitor" ok to use for storage?
Thanks,
E

Monty, I can get a used Toro Nero with a used 9901 pipe for $200, I don't know how well it runs yet, but is it worth it? Also a plus 4 for $300 they say is 100% meaning new, not sure about the bearings on either engine, here is a pic of the Toro Nero, http://www.flickr.com/photos/roland99/8219960907/

Monty YGPM...LMK thanks!

Monty, today the buku clutch didn't do so well, it started going good, a bit doggy so I adjusted all three the same amount and it was flawless for about a tank, next thing I knew it seemed very sluggish, wouldn't get enough speed for the jumps, so I brought it straight in and you could smell it was burnt. I haven't taken it apart to look but you could smell it, when I popped the temp gun on the engine it was only 240 but the clutch was like 270. It doesn't even have half a gallon on it yet, I am assuming the shoes are black, can I use some emery cloth to scuff it up or are the shoes wasted? When I get it apart I will snap a pic if you need it

Do not use anything but denatured alcohol and a lint free cotton towel to clean off the face of the shoes

These clutches do not like being over tensioned so you really shouldn't try to create a high stall, it does not work

Hopefully you get it figured out Jerome, it's a badass clutch system :nod:

Was able to TQ pro buggy out of 19 entries at FRC's 3rd annual Toys For Tots race this weekend with my Fusion X3LX. However, in the main I made a bad tire selection and my buggy was a hand full, it made for a long 30 minutes. I ended up 7th.

The engine never missed a beat, so smooth with power to spare. I was also getting great fuel mileage, after a 2 minute warm up and a 5 min qualifier I was just under half a tank.

Oh yea and I am running a Buku clutch and Monty is right, this clutch is the real deal.

Oh the dreaded "poor tire choice" whoas ::cry:

Glad your engine ran like a champ though , better luck next time bro

Yes , in buggy the buku is no joke , if there is too much traction it can be hard for the komposite material to stay cool and keep a positive engagement without a bog in the truck.but otherwise it's spot on :nod:
