Default nova pluss3.5?????

after break-in i was getting 11.5 to 12min of runtime. now after 6 gallons or so its now runnin 9 to 10 min a tank. i have changed the front barring and played with the tuning on my carb. i loaned the motor to a friend for a race. i am thinking he may have ran my motor hot. it started loosing run time after he used it. down to 7 minutes or so per tank. i pulled the button off and the o ring was stuck i cleaned the button and put it all back together. its now picked back up to the 9 or so minutes runtime.

do yall think i should get another head button for it?

thanks

Loaning an engine to a friend is like loaning your wife to a friend. She's never the same when you get her back. lol

I ran a Nitrotec R21 and a RE10 pipe for about 7 gallons last season and loved it but went ahead a got a BTTA for this year. Anyway my question is have any of you racers ran the Losi RE10 with your BTT or other similar mill? I am trying to save a little money and stick with the Losi pipe which is similar to the 9901 and 2060 I think. Thanks for any info!

RE12 is the one thats "similar" to the 9901ss/41021 pipeset

if you are happy with the RE10 on your nitrotec it will run similar on your plus 4

i would still recommend a 9901ss/41021 or 2096ss/41021

the guy with runtime issues , usually when an engine loses its compression seal and starts to get some blowby occuring you start to richen the engine on both lsn and hsn (putting more oil/fuel mix in the chamber to compensate for looseness) but mainly lsn so you lose a tremendous amount of runtime by doing so and risk of flameouts increases dramatically

resize from Rayaracing.com = goodness

Ray does phenomenal work and theres tooling in his shop that is not sold to others by way of purchasing his own brand (yes he is "THE MAN") of resizing equipment
