jp what u have against Losi???hahaha... just remember that one beat u yesterday...just kidding

True, if they are not set properly they will hit the center diff mount, other then that they shouldn't bind. I took a step further and shaved a little bit the center diff and never had a cab binding issue, well plenty of other issues but not a carb binding one......

its not the losi that is making the carb stick obviously if your linkage is not correct it will bind and stick but people need to get it correct that its not the losi causing the issue its happaning on all cars and fuel causes carbs to stick as well...open your carb up and buff (polish) not grind.. the needle and the slide where the needle sits, clean it and you should be fine..if you guys have questions about the carb call Chad at Trinity and he will explain whats going on....

so what kind of run times are you guys getting with those pipes your talking about ?????

I have never had an issue with the slide sticking on my ExTech. In fact, I have not had one single problem with it at all.

I had all my links set perfect, it was working butter smooth with power shut off. On my last practice run it just locked up, no warning at all. I love this engine and I plan on running them at all the big races. Chad Phillips said he would take care of this issue for me wich shows great product support by Trinity.

My buddy runs the ExTech in his X2. Motor is bad ass, lots of power, 11 min plus run times, running a Dynamite 086 pipe. Its also nice to take the EB out of the box and put it in the car, run it rich for 2 tanks and lean on that Sum Buick!!!!!

I hope it's just a rumor about Ed splitting with Trinity! That would be a bummer for sure. What would they do?

I have a leaking carb boot now. I remeber that there is an easy fix. Can someone tell me what it is please.
