hi,

i have a nova p5x that i bought off a guy, i was told it only had a couple of gallons through. ive been trying to get this thing to keep a tune for a couple of weeks, with not much luck. i will get it to run great, consistant power, running between 230º-245º... but by the end of a 6 min heat, im losing a little power? but that could be just a tuning issue, but the biggest problem is the thing is fouling glow plugs bad! last week i fouled out 4 just that day! about 8-10 total in the 1/2 gallon ive run it...

i was told to take it down and look for slop in the rod bushings, does anyone think that could be the problem? thanks for your help!
