hey Houston,

i just got my N21R-BF. its just passed break-in. after i left off the throttle after a pass, it hangs high for a second or two then drops to idle. i richened the lsn, with no effect. i'm not too sure what to do next...

are the needle settings the same for the n21r and n21r-bf engine's? my lsn was too lean...3.5 turns out. guess i didnt go rich enough. i'll try these settings.

thanks for taking the time to search , if you race where we race you would get more help

happy motorin',
Monty

i always try to search lol. key word being "try." where do you race? we will both be there at least once! i think you guys race in eugene right? send me a link or an address or something for the track. just about have our trucks ready for some track time!

houston is the Novarossi 41021 short the same run style as the Novarossi 41029 Short Compact, i will be running it on a mbx6t with the fms with a 9853 pipe? or should i be looking at some thing different.

U r correct

The only thing is you don't really need the compact header for the mugen truck but it is kind of a must for the buggy .

I have been preferring the 2084ss over the 9853ss for overall runtime/power . The 9853ss def. Makes more power though

houston where do you race at?

Hi Monty,
I need your help. I am confused on the correct HSN setting for my Plus-21C. If you go to the Novarossi web site and watch the video clip of Adam Drake on tuning he states that a good starting point for a “race tune” for the HSN on the Plus 21 is “flush to a 1/4 to ˝ turn in. If you use the “factory setting “ of 3.5 turns out as a base line, it is a long way from flush! Is a “race tune” that far from the “factory setting” of 3.5? Every time I try to lean out the HSN that much, the temps shoot up. I have never gotten close to a HSN of flush. Granted, the engine is still fairly new. Maybe close to 2 gallons at the most. There is still a slight mechanical pinch. I use Byron’s 25%, O’Donnell T98 plug, and a 6.5 card insert. You thoughts would be appreciated! Maybe I am just over analyzing things!

factory settings and race settings are nothing close to each other

a good starting point if you get the carb out of whack with most pipe combos is 4.25 on lsn and 3.5 on hsn , approx. 1 full turn open from just closed on the idle gap . for the plus 4 engine and long needle carb

Hey houston, do you have an FMS that you can ship out on Friday? PM sent about it.
