So my question is what is the running temp range that is good for the motor? I can't seem to get an answer for this question no matter where I ask it. All are different. I wish it was right in the manual that came with my Matrix RW...Recommended running temp..blah-blah...give me something please.
Well, you can't just have a one formula fits all RB motors. It really depends on the engine model, piston/sleeve condition, ceramic bearings or no, climactic conditions, etc.
The main thing I've learned from the best tuners is to get the right amount of smoke coming from the exhaust and to check the head button after each run. The optimum engine temp really can vary too much to set a *target* temp on the gun.
Keep checking your pipe seals as well to make sure there are no leaks, as this can often get you chasing a tune.
