buy a GX motor and you wont have that problem...Remember it is a 3 port so it doesnt have the top end that you MAY be trying to reach(thus creating a lean bog) have you tried running both needles super rich( not four stroke rich) but rich to see if it still does it even if you have crap for power lol....if it still does it then there IS a air leak some where!(I DONT CARE WHAT YOU SAY)...

....just an inside joke!...we all learn something everyday with RC cars and NITRO engines...just cause you have ran nitro for 20 years DOES NOT make you a great tuner!...and im not trying to be mean im just stating the truth about people in general....ive had to show and tell COUNTLESS amounts of guys who have ran nitro for 20 years but have gone through 100 motors in those 20 years

OR idk if this has been mentioned, but what plug are you running??

YES THE ROD WILL FIT ALL MODELS!..21,25 AND 28....the reason why he snapped a rod is cause he DID NOT break it in right OR PRE HEAT it while it still has LOTS of pinch!....when a motor is new(regardles of the brand) you want to ALWAYS pre heat the engine before you run it because when fired cold you are just abusing the hell out of the rod,because the piston is still trying to form the sleeve!.....
