So lets hear about it? what kind of stuff do you do to your nitro MT? Anything i should be aware about. thanx :shrug:

Ok, as you all know I'm net to nitro. I've read enough to know you can't leave the fuel in the engine. How do you drain it? And I'm supposed to put WD40 in the engine also right? Where?

I have a hyper pbs.What sould i do to look after my fuel filter? Does it need to be replaced or cleaned and how often is this necessary?

I used to use shock oil that came with my RTR kits to oil my filter elements before I bought a Motor Saver. I want to oil the inner foam element and I wanted to see if anyone thought if it would be bad if I used the spray oil that is used on K&N air filters?

Does anyone know of a link, or a thread here that could explain engine life and maintenance? I tried the search option to no avail. My friend swears that the engine I sold him is junk (its an OPS .15) because it doesn't run well anymore. I told him that it had almost 2 gallons run through it...

I just got a Bolink Legend w/ a Trinity "magic" speed signature series motor in it and want to know how to maintane an electric motor. This is my first electric car. :)
