I have 7 gallons on my Bonito and it runs flawless and has great compression. 2 weeks ago I was having a flame out issue and I couldn't correct the problem with the needles so I pulled the engine apart and my front bearing had slack so I changed it out and it and haven't flamed since. This is the second front bearing I have replaced on this motor so I don't think its too far fetched that this could be the problem. First one I replaced around the 3 gal mark.

Pull the crank out and put it through the front bearing from the outside of the motor and see if it has slack.

3 gallons could be bearing...... as a rule the 7 ports are rock solid for us unless there is something wrong....at 3 gallons a bearing is likely scrap..especially if the engine has been run in dirty dusty conditions......

So are you saying if the bearing has slack , the nitro spray test wont determine it?

Also keep in mind gentlemen the flameouts are only happening when I'm upside down. Its never happening while I'm on all 4 wheels.

I assume the nitro spray test will work but I have never checked mine using that method but I have read on here where it works.

He means fuel line. Run a longer fuel line or convert tank to a clunker tank.

Moe,
PM me your cell number and I'll text you a pic of my fuel routing on my 8.2 is needed. More then likely it sounds like your LSN is a touch lean and its starving for fuel when upside down.

Thank you very much! I just got a Roma 25 Pre-Run. Ask Novarossi and they said they would do three more tanks with rich carburetion, and then ready for the track!

One more question, i wonder if the pipe 9901 is equal in performance to the RB 2097? Because I would like to use this set in my Nova Bonito:

if you want the Bonito to make good power try the 9886SS on a 41001 or 41019 manifold................ if you wish to tame the Bonito and smooth its power run the 9901/41021 or 2096/41021 ..the 2096 and 9901 will make the engine smooth, but will reduce the output substantially compared to 9886... anyone who complains about a Bonito lacking oomph needs to try a 9886 on a short manifold........it totally wakes the engine up and brings it alive........

Out of nowhere the postman dropped an EDIT EFRA 2032 pipe on my doorstep ... Look forward to test it

Hi guys,

I had many Novarossi engine, from 367 to BTT passing through P4, P4-C Team, P5XLT. I just bought a new P5XLT and reading the exploded view I did notice that according to Novarossi on my 2012 P5 there is a 24063 carburetor instead of 24069 as stated on my 2010 P5 exploded view.

My question is, how do you guys identify the carburetor installed on the engine ? I did not notice any reference on the carburetor body. And according to the different exploded view I have it's only the body that do change between models.

So please help me figuring this out.

Also I know that a new carburetor is out 24065. Do this one bring some goods versus the old one ?

Regards...
