If you have 2 same engines but performing different or feel different then you can be sure there is something different in timings. I have seen a lot of differences between same models.
I have seen that from some research I have done. Very nice contraptions you come up with. I am trying to learn more about the function of these little engines so I can apply it to RC drag racing. Its been an interesting year or so and I have learned a lot from reading on this forum and other sources! I am making some progress in tuning but haven't got to technical yet into modifying. I have modified a few here and there but mainly opening a little the crankshaft intake. Interestingly, my best results were obtained with a stock engine and I have tried engines from a few different modifiers. I still have a lot to learn!
