the 9901ss works very good also , afterall it is a novarossi

Im thinking 2096ss is another KILLER option

Monty - I will give you a call next week. Thanks

Hey, Houston

I have a Nova P3XS and was reading about the front bearing in the P5 being no good. The P3XS has the same front bearing, would you also recommend changing it to the #17011 front bearing.

Cheers

Yes I would, entirely up to you when but it should b done inside 2 gallonsish

You hit the nail on the head! I threw on old JP1 and it really woke it up! Can't wait to try a 2013 or the Novas you listed. THANKS!

Hi ..Itz fine to use other brand of plugs on the BTTS???

Such as?

If you put an os plug in there then stick with os

Ok...Noted tks...I m using 97T..

You can switch back and forth between odo and nova

My P5 is about 16 liters old.Havent change the front bearing yet.Just wonder what is the indicator when the front bearing starting to become bad.So far i cant really tell is there any different compare when its was new.Very minimal leaks aswell(compare to my alpha and pr21c).What to look for?Thanks

Its not so much that the bearing leaks as it sucks in dirt , not so good


Trust me I wish the bearing was not used

Do you have to worry about that same front bearing issue in the FMS?

So to be save just change them eventhough there is no sign its gone bad?Thanks

Hey guys, got a question.

I run an FMS in my 1/8 Late Model. Its just mental fast, sounds crazy, love it. (Brought it from a seller on here and have no complaints at all.)

One thing I notice is if it idles, it seems to load up, and when i get on the gas it will splutter and stall if I don't get on the gas pretty hard to clear it out. Doesn't take alot of time to load up either.
This past weekend, I ran maybe 7-8 warm up laps (after pre-heating the motor with a comp heater in the pits). Pulled over to be top'd up;
Pit guy was holding it up, and I was revving it to not load it up, and when the race started, I squeezed harder on the gas and it "popped" and flamed out. Any ideas why this happened and if could be avoided in the future ?
Thanks in advance.

Its probably too rich on the low speed needle causing it to foul the plug.Try leaning it until it only loads up a little.After getting the low speed where it needs to be you may have to richen the top a little.
