Do you know when the 2013 pipe will become available? I picked up the B5 from AMain last week, but the pipe was showing as back ordered.

thanks,
Johnny :cool:

JANEKII, sorry about the delayed response, I've been off of the site for a couple of days (so anyone that has sent me PM's etc. please be advised I'm working my way through them and will be getting back to you over the course of the next day or so).

Now regarding what you are seeing there are several things that can cause the tune to change i.e. weather changes, humidity, plug (going out), fuel tank/line issues, clogged filter etc. etc. etc. The first thing that I would advise is just like everyone else (thank you guys) has suggested is to just quickly double check everything is ok. If everything looks fine then you are probably just off on tune. Simply set your air gap to aprox .5mm, set your HS flush, set your LS flush and then fire the engine up. We know your engine is broken in so you can do things a little quicker. Blip the throttle for a couple of minutes to get some heat in the engine case and chassis then let it come down to idle. We are again going to use my system so if the idle is low, lean the LS to bring it back up. If the idle is high, richen the LS to bring it down. Once you get a smooth, steady idle toss the car on the track and start doing some laps and adjusting the HS for the top end performance that you want. Please keep in mind that when adjusting the HS if you lean it, it will also have the effect of leaning your LS. So... your idle will go up, simply richen the LS a couple hours to offset this (do not touch the idle stop screw) and you see a steady idle again. Keep on adjusting the HS, then the LS (for the idle) until you get the performance that you want. Once you get the HS set to where you want it, double check the idle and adjust it one last time with the LS needle and you are done!

Don't get stuck in the I have to see this temp in order for the engine to be running right type mentality. There are a lot of variables that will affect the optimum running temp of your engine and chiefly what is affecting it most this time of year is the exterior temperature. If it's 20 degrees outside your engine may only want to run at 190. If it's fast enough for you at 190 then leave it there and have fun...

Hope this helps, please give this a shot and let us know what you come up with.

Regards,

Hey guys and Ron,
I think I have the idle thing worked out. For some reason now when I get the engine up to temp the engine will rev up real high until I push the brake. The engine will idle great. Only when get on the gas. I've checked out my linkage and everything looks good and smooth. When the engine revs up real high, the carb is back to the original position where it idles. So the linkage closes the carb back to it's original position. When I put on the brake the gap doesn't close any more.
So I thought there might be a air leak some where. I didn't see any obvious sighns in the back of the motor for leaks. Took the carb off and sealed with gasket sealent. I have checked the tank for leaks also.(dunk under water and blew through the lines, no bubbles) Although, I do see air bubbles coming through the line some times when the engine is running. New fuel line also. I've checked the gaskets on the pipes, and there doesn't seem like there is any problems on the pipe(no fuel leaks). Really scratching my head on this one...
Any help would be great!!!

Let me take a guess and say this problm is on a Losi 8ight 2.0 buggy?
