Can you modify the crankshaft to convert a RTR engine with pull start to a non-pull start, with a backing plate. There is a small pin on the end of the crankshaft that engages the pull start unit and it needs to be grinded off and make smooth where the connecting rod attaches. Thnx

We are now offering oil bath break in service in addition to our traditional break in service. Some who have used our standard service for nearly a decade prefer it but now we offer both options for customers. 2 day turnaround on break in services.

I am interested in sending an engine in for an oil bath break in, but I see that there are few tanks of light running required after that. Do you have an recommendation on how these should be performed?

Yes we send instructions with each engine we do the break in service on.

Hey Lance,
glad to see you are still providing services!! I had a Werks B5 modded by you about 5 years ago. And I must say, even after 5 years, the engine is still strong! Granted, I took a two year hiatus in there, but dang, the fact that your mod and my engine still runs like a clock, is a true testament to your work.
I am about to head overseas for a deployment, and while I am gone, I’m gonna buy a new engine. I would like to send my old B5 to you to get rebuilt, as well as get my new engine broken in. I’ll send you more info on what I would like done, once I send them. But was just curious, if I send you an old engine like I am, will you recommend new parts if something is so messed up as well as replace them? Or is that outside of your scope of service. For example, if my piston is just shot, will you typically get a new one and add it to the cost of the service, or just tell the person it’s shot, and have to send it back? Just curious. Like I said, I would like a total engine rebuild for my B5, but didn’t know if you would actually do something like that. Thanks again for your engine services, love them!!

Yes If it needs new parts that's not a problem. And yes we always inspect the engines that way we can advise on what to do. Sometimes on old engines its not worth rebuilding it because of the replacement parts cost and I will be honest and let customers know that as well. We resize piston/sleeves but if need we also can replace parts if needed, bearings, rods, cranks p/s etc... Anything with nitro engines we do, break ins, rebuilds, mods, we even work on and mod rc boat, plane, tether car engines etc...
Thanks again and whenever you are ready send it in an well get it dialed in for you.

Morning, is it necessary to add a shim between the front bearing and the cone? I have never done this, but I have read and been told it helps the race of the front bearing when the cone is not on it. If so, do we have a measurement or part # for this shim?
Thanks,
Thanks,
