Full of compression, bearing isnt gritty..

Someone suggested a bad glowplug lol, I'm not sure why I didnt think about this :lol: but im going to take it out and replace it, and see if that fixes the problem.

Thanks everyone!

For what it is worth guys, lot's of good info here. I offer not much in the way of rc knowledge compared to all of you BUT, working in the HVAC industry you can use ALT 248 to get the degree symbol ° when you are typing. Happy typing, just thought I'd help where I can. LOL

Sooo 300°:)

didn't work , little more detail ? 8

What he is referring to is the special associations with keyboard keys. If you where to hold down the ALT key next to your keyboard and press the corrisponding numbers say 248 like he suggests you get the degree symbol so ° just like if you hold alt and press 11 you get the this symbal ♂.
Just a little computer nerd for you.
Hope this helps.

I get it now... you have to use the number pad and not the keys above the qwerty. °°♂♂°° I hope that doesn't mean something offensive to the mods. :D

Ok... Hmmm... Are you using laptop? or are you using the keypad to the right of your keyboard? Oh and are you windows based?

So your using a laptop?
As you need the Numeric keypad to the right with Num Lock on, to be able to do Alt coding.

I learned something today. °:lol:°

Well if we are learing....
If you go to Programs ► Accecories►System Tools► You will find Character Map. This will let you see what is available and the Alt +#### to produce it. If you select one the Alt + #### will show up in the lower right corner.

You do have to type the numbers steady and fast.

These can vary on different machine according to system fonts
FYI on my machine Alt+ 0176 is the Degree Symbol, while Alt+0248 is a small letter 0 with a slash through it.

0176 = °
0248 = ø

Have Fun!

HOLD the ALT key down as you type 248 so ALT 248 holding the ALT key ° when the ° appears release the alt key.

Good luck:)
