Anybody?.. Anything on the B52? Might be able to get a deal on one(with 2081)...

Is it possible to get an Argus .23 from anywhere other than New Zealand?

Plenty of Alpha A352's floating around on fleabay, pretty much exactly the same engine.

Like the black head better... (and maybe a better price..)

If anyone is looking for a backup engine I have a a52 listed in the for sale thread
It has 2 gallons on it, runs great an has great compression.

What does everyone think of the new Argus R8 when it comes out??

Where did you see this?

yesterday ,participated in our local fun race..here in Malaysia I ran my a52 in a sc 1/8 category.. my engine flamed out several times during the 2heat and final.. any idea guys to whats happening?here before i did the warming up and did several laps for 2-3 minutes it was fine ..idle was good and pickup was there.. but when i enter the race it flamed out after 4-5 laps.. did change the plug to anew one but with the same result.. compression is still there did raise the idle but to no avail..help me guys...please

Set the idle gap at .7 mm and retune the lsn to get the right idle speed. Also flameouts can happen from a clutch shoe hanging from a broken spring, bad clutch bearing. Also what plug are you using?

Been told about it from my NZ sponsor but its also on the net, look up Argus rc r8 and there is a pic there. Ment to be able to order this week so hope to see them at the end of the month (fingers x)

P3 alpha plug with Byron 25%

Anyone know where I can get a high speed needle valve holder. I snapped mine on my A52 tightening it.

What's this red-headed Argus R8 all about? See it on ebay.co.uk - pricey for an Argus.. What is it exactly? I've really liked my A52, so I still have a bit of sentimental loyalty to the brand...

It looks like it has the filled crank, new backplate similar to the Lutz/ Dragon engines.
