.15fe settings?

[4u2nv]

Does anyone know the factory needle settings for the HPI .15fe engine? Mainly the main screw. I'm having probs getting it to idle long enough to get it tuned in..

I have that and the stock setting was 4 turns out I think. But I beleive that 3 1/2 will work fine to start off with.

I know an OS 15 cv-r(x) carb fits and makes it run really good. You have to drill and tap a couple holes in the carb neck, but other than that, it was a really good upgrade on mine.

I did it because the carb on my engine was itty bitty and one needle to adjust only. I couldn't get that little bastard to run right. So, I pulled a carb off a dead OS, drilled/tapped a couple holes, then it purred like a kitten. Idle'd well and ran smooth from idle to WOT. Also gained quite a bit of grunt.

Sweet! Thanks fellas!! I'm just gonna bash with this until I get the "Onroad feel" again, and then drop a .12 in it. Thanks again for the help fellas!

Did you manage to find a mill dangerous enough to take its place? Infinity or OS perhaps?

until you replace that single needle carb you will never get it to run right. Get an OS 10 e and be done with it.
