alright, thanks that helps a lot :nod: When you say adjusting 1 hour, isn't it 1/12?:confused: Alsoc when the settings are for example 4 out, that means 4 turns (12 hours or 1 full circle) correct. This is what i have been doing and i just want to make sure :)
Thanks

Hey ottoman,
What clock do you know of that has 16 hours??!!:lol: :lol: :D ;)

I was wondering about that myself! lol :lol:
Thanks again for the help

Ha ha ... I should have said 1/16 to 1/8 turn... or the clock.. were 1 hr = 1/12th turn:rolleyes:

I am at high alt. in colorado and cant seem to get the temp above 200 should I try a hotter plug and if so a reg, long or short? Sorry if the answer is posted else were in the tread I got tired after the first 10 pages HA HA ! Thanx for the help.

There is no reason to make your engine run hotter than 200 degrees if it is performing well.

I raced with a guy who had an RB that ran at 190 degrees and was faster than most everyone on the track.

How is your engine running?

My engine runs great low to mid but bad in the high rpm range and I cant figure out if I need to lean out the high need or what. any ideas.

gear up

Ok I was just running my car and noticed it runs better with little fuel in the tank and worse at full tank its a nitro tc3 with the new tank should I lengthen the fuel line and air line.

make sure you have the newer tank, orings installed underthem, i dont know how long yours are but my pressure line and throttle line are fairly short, like 6 inches each.

it's leaning out at the end. is your car not running well when the tank is full? if so, my guess is your engine is a little rich, or your pressure line is too long.

how many guys are happy with there sts motors. if so why, if not why? and which one do u have?

hey Dino. I own a D3, I was wondering what are the specs on the front bearing for the D3? My bearing seems to be leaking, I also am using 3 of the thin washers(from crc ) to prectect the front bearing..

thanks Jason

gentleman81,
My STS RS3 Non-Turbo motor just TQ'ed and won the mains in todays club racing, www.edmontonrc.com . The motor is plenty fast, the only trouble I have had is keeping it idling when in for fuel stops...pull in stop and motor dies...re-fires at once and stays lit untill the next fuel stop!! Have tried different heat ranges of plugs and various shim hights...nothing yet. I feel it is solvable with a little more work...maybe bottom too rich and loading??? Dino...sugestions. Other than the tuning problem...which is probably me more than the motor, it runs with all the motors in our club, OS TR's, Rossi Pixi's, Nova Rossi's. The only motor, at our track that is quicker is a M.S. Nova Mega and I think if I were to get the bottom sorted it would be a different story.:nod: For the $$$ best bang for the buck...imho.

Need any help?
 

Look who pushed me out of the way to work on my STS Dragon :)
