what are the latest pipes to be used with this engine..

i dont think the 086 is a good match up for singles motor.

have any of you guys ran the go/sstech/alpha 0801 on any of the js motors?

single,
if you need any advise or tuning help i can try to talk you through it. when you have some time give me a call at the shop during business hours 845-787-2485... lets let this thread air out a bit.. the dirty laundry stinks!

I saw a handfull of these engines at the North pro series this past weekend, they looked really good.

I saw a few of these Engines at the Silver State Race and I think it was the guys with the screw drivers. Most of the ones that I saw RIPPED!!!!!! But I did see a few that just didnt seem right thats why I say its the guy with the Screw Driver. My 2cents.

Vareck the one i worked on felt great but i think it has the wrong pipe set..

i dont think the 086 is ideal, i think thats why the low end is finicky and the motor seems to idle high, if you lower the idle just a tick it then drops down so low that it dies in about 5-6 seconds.

what glowplug, fuel % and fuel brand ? and what head shims in engine ?

the idle comes set out of the box, and should need no more then 1/8 of a turn in either direction for the perfect tune. try leaning the bottom next time..
086 pipe runs great!

Max, the deck come set and is not to be adjusted.

Sorry for the offtopic, but jpalessi, YGPM.

he is running
od 97t plugs
byron 30% race
in a losi 2.0t.

if we start leaning the low end more he gets running on in air.. and the motor dose not like to return to idle once you let off..

I see


readin whats he's saying it doesn't sound like any major issue at all...most likely something very simple being overlooked....I hate seeing such a good engine being bad talked over something that is likely nothing more then something really simple being overlooked....

Sorry to butt in, i just hate seeing those kinds of posts ! These engines rely on soo many little factors to operate correctly, and it seems guys are way to fast to judge a complete line of an engine from what is most likely user error.... And if the issue isn't user error these engines are soo simple that finding the issue should not be anything too difficult...

97T is my guess...it doesn't do well at all in my modified engines either , same issues you are describing almost to a T...switch to a OS P4 or P5 and the issue should vanish ( thats my guess anyways)

im trying to get awnsers, and joe

so ill leave single on his own, ill stop working with him trying to get his motor to run right for him.

i dont think he likes paying 12 bucks for a plug. he said the motor ran great on a p4, ill let him know...
thanks for the help neal...
