One problem I see with your theory, our engines are not fed by a gravity tank for there to be any pouring involved. On a motocross bike the tank is above the motor and fuel line goes down as with the fuel so air needs in so it doesn't vapor lock like you describe.

On a nitro RC the fuel pick up is well below the inlet to the carb. So for the fuel to go up hill and threw all the twists and turns some ppl have it needs a pressure to push it. Hence the pressure line. If you had no pressure line the motor does not have any suction so it gets no fuel. And sine the pickup is below the carb gravity is factored out. Why do you think air leaks cause tunic issues? Extra air is getting in and and tank pressure is reduced so you ge less fuel to the motor. The pressure line is basically a simple fuel pump on these cars.

It's nice to have a civil debateabout our opinions online for once. no name calling or what not.

I think I'm quite fast at putting the fuel in the tank...or on the pipe killing the engine.

i agree! but i think alot of guys look out of the box...per say, like i do. weather im right or your right, i think its great that guys can make or give there opinion here without a big agruement like most threads ive seen. just makeing assumptions here, but still lov'in the GX5R..., never a problem for me. and if there is i can come here and get the problem solved in minutes!!

yes this is also very true...i keep forgetting to lengthen my pressure line a little...i dont find it an issue at all for me...i just make sure its running while bieng fueled and clear it out right before i get dropped

i think your an idiot! ....JUST KIDDING!....for real..just a joke....yup, pressure line=fuel pump

but i have ran atleast 20 minutes with the fuel presure line off???? now what??

anyway................i love my GO ENGINE!!!!

hi flanno,

thanks for the tip... will follow the GO Tech TIp on break-in

http://go-racing.vpweb.co.nz/Tech-Tips.html

Also, is the 2072 tough? I had a 0801 pipe and after some time the stinger is not very strong and dented.

Thanks,

Now thats the smartest thing I'v seen/read all afternoon

Thou I'd add another 2-3" to that pressure line between the cooler and the lid

Also, aren't calibres directional ??? at least it'l stop well

No probs bud

The other 2 pipes you have in your signature will work well for certain tracks/conditions too, but the 2072 is the best suited to the GX and GXII for all-round performance without having to keep changing pipes to get a certain result.

using 2047 on Stock v-spec is also very good.. my ride during a race here in PHIL which i won in B-Main. Imagine a V-spec that high on the losi, the GXII would be level with the body

I'm bringing sexy back............yep!!

^ sure is

Agree on this.

Good luck!! If you slowly slide the lsn assembly in and out you will notice it has a catch in it. Also look under the carb boot it should still have oil residue in it from the nitro. To me the whole slide assembly seems loose. I also put a new seal on the lsn. Thanks for taking the time to look at it Puddin. I know you have been watching what you eat,but you have earned 1 bonus pudding cup of your choice! Don't get the low fat one either, they are worse for you then regular.
