1 liter max i think, i think the compression is somewhat fine, it has somewhat of a ressistance when you pull it, i need to hold it down with one hand, not too hard but a bit. this thing you're suggesting, what parts are we talking about here, what do i need to buy to fix it if that's the problem?
i was out yesterday and did some testing.
i have tuned it to a rich setting and a lot of smoke emerges from the pipe, both when idle and when throttle.
But when it get's hot and starts running weird, the smoke disapears, it all of a sudden get's very little fuel, i tried turning the low speed...
Yea, it's some Hard plastic, we have some other carbs, but we can't really test them since they aren't big enough. The one on This car is quite big, but I'm not sure if i can test it in Any other way than purchasing a New one
the problem is that when it get's hot, like when it reach the temps it's suposed to hit when driving, (i can hold my hand on it for a second or two but not more than that), at that point it doesn't matter how the needles are tuned, not even at the manufactures standard settings will it run...
So what is the easiest way to check for a leak? I'm pretty sure thats the problem, but I'm not sure how i go about putting some constant air pressure on it
I'm pretty much running it without the body since it's easier to tune, but yes, there is a whole in the body, it was there when i bought it, so the air flow should be great.
It's not closing in the carb when i brake, it's not even moving, but it still won't go fluently
It just seems like if...
Thanks, i've been thinking about the air
So i took it apart today and found out that there was not just 1 but 2 seals between the motor and the upper cooling part (sorry, english isn't my native)
so we removed one of them, and suddenly it sounded like it should!
then we went out to tune it...
Hi!
I have this HPI Trophy 3.5. It drives really well and with no problem at all. However, when i have used 3/4 of a tank and it's around as hot as it gets, it starts to run really bad.
Everytime i hit the brakes it just dies, it has no trouble standing in neutral, but whenever i drive it and i...
