my question is what solution should i use to clean it? is there any thing i can get from like a local hardware store, or should i use a rc brand specific stuff.
thanks
I would just used brake cleaner that you are able to find at any local parts or auto outlet, then once everything thing has been fully cleaned where you are happy I would use a quality bearing oil on the front and rear bearings, then use after run oil on all the other parts as you are reinstalling them. This is the method I have used and my engine has never run better.
