Also, if you are using a closed cockpit body (like a sedan or something), open up some more cooling holes. Cutting out a side window can drop temps 10 degrees. Cut out a hole in the rear window to give the hot air someplace to go.
If all else fails, try a different fuel.
Actually I was running it with no body on. The sedan body I use does have holes in the windshield and back window, I will open up the sides before I run with the body.
I will try richening the bottom end. As it is it loads up in 10 seconds or so if I don't keep blipping the throttle at idle! This thing likes to run! But I will try that and see if it helps keep the temps down. I am running Byrons 20% now, maybe something else will run cooler.
Too bad the different glow plug won't help, I thought it might be worth a shot. Thanks for the advice!
