Yeah, I've been looking for some time but no luck. But the deals on ebay are so hard to pass up. My pops won two brand spankin new GRPs for $200, but the seller removed the rod on one of the motors and now he's looking for one.

Ive been running a MR-B01A in an MBX5T this season and it has suffered from a lack of bottom end. I have used a 2050 and 9853 pipe on it. I switched to 1.1 spings and it helped a little. This past weekend i tried a JP-1 pipe and it really came alive. It definitly lowered the max rpm but im ok with that for now. I ran a 10 minute heat and still had some fuel in the tank without a pit stop. I have heard that the JP series pipes are fuel hogs. is there a better low end pipe i should be using?

thanks, Steve

The GRP pipe 3009 is a low end or high end pipe?

Default Help with Dead GRP .21 Tuned

I'm hoping someone can help me. At a race last weekend, my GRP tuned .21 engine in my buggy completely died. Both I and everyone else thought it was the glow plug because it would run on the starter box with the plug heater on it, but then it would die once I took it off. I replaced the plug with a new one 3 different times (P3 and tried a P4), but it kept dying once I took the heater off.(I'm in Florida, so the outside temp isn't an issue) The engine only has about 3 1/2 gallons through it, ran very strong and has plenty of pinch left.

Can anyone give me any advice as to why this is happening and suggest a fix? I appreciate any help I can get!

I saw that GRP is now making glow plugs. Hopefully a sign that they'll produce parts in the future, especially since they're in high demand.
