I have 2 Toro Neros Team and they are easy to tune and i love them.
1 race has my team Plus4 gone perfectly, the front bearing are not leaking and i have tested several glowplugs. The comp. is great too. Any ideas whats wrong?

/P
I'm far from being an expert engine tuner, but I've come to the conclusion that Nova's are finicky motors. I have ran other engines and always seem to gravitate back to them anyways. Once you have it in the sweet spot it will put a smile on your face. Make sure there are no leaks in your fuel and exhaust system, as that will ruin your day. I'm thinking with my +4 of going to a 053 or 9853 pipe. I'm think that the 9901 makes the motor ever more sensitive on the tune, plus i like an aggressive bottom end. I was actually going to ask Monty about this, maybe he'll pipe up
