Sure can, I'm using a 97T in my B03 with 25% - goes well! I guess it depends a lot on fuel and climate though.

That thing is pretty cool. Try running some lighter wheels and tires. Try the Sweep six-pack wheels and their tires, should save you at least 50g. The brand you are running now is pretty heavy.

cheers mate ..


yeah there are still a good handfull of things to ligth'n and get the weight down even more . i cop'd alot of slack for the screws that hung down in the chassis when i first finsihed the car , they are now all TI-button heads and im working round the car swaping out the other screws to TI . things like the bulky on/off switch and things like that will go . .anyways befor the TP mill it was sirio sm21 powerd and was a handfull to say the least to drive, so im guessin the .23 now matched to that nova pipe will be fun lol hahaha gunna be a tire shredderrrrrrrrr ...

Conrods part# 0104002-01 normally you should be able to find them at AMain

Glowplugs, O.S. or O'Donnell glwoplugs are compatible too

If the sleeve of your engine has a diameter of 19.50mm then yes.

Ok I just picked up the B01i from AMain, I think they only have 4 left. I like smooth engines so hopefully this is something like that.

Question, has anyone had any experience with Odonnell 77T glow plugs and the EFRA 2072 pipe on this engine?

Thanks!

Would appreciate any help or tips you could give me thank you for your time.

Here you can find the manual of this type of engines, http://tecnopower-motor.com/images/s...structions.pdf

The the base settiongs to start from are High Speed Needle = 5 turns from closed and the Low Speed needle = 6 turns from closed.
Be aware that when you close the LSN you have the carburetor completely open so you do not widen the spraybar inside of the carburetor.

Hope this will be of some help.

I see the company has finnished producing engines but i am after any info on where to get me some more connecting rods.........any help would be good.

The company that made them should still produce them as they would sell for years to come. Great engines right back to the grp line.

Well engine is broken in and loving the powerband, tried both the 2053 and 2072 pipes back to back and I preffer the powerband feel on the 2072, not to mention that it wakes up the bottom insanely. Using 77T glow plugs, didn't get a chance to check run time but seems to be at least 9+. Very happy with it.

shame you guys at TP engines arent doing well... sure looks like a great mill and much potential..

safe to say that the reason for you closing doors is that you were not reaching sufficient sale numbers... to even out investment costs or?
