A little revo run.

[easy rider]

I posted this to the burned nitro thread. First real run of the year. I did some work to it and changed a few things around.

I took the pull start off this truck. Here’s my reason. Every motor I run Traxxas fuel in, I really clean out well when storing for long sets. I put Kroll’s oil in it and really lube stuff up after I clean it. It makes it hard as heck to start.

I replaced a lot of things I’d used off the original chassis. And I stiffened up my rear suspension. It drove good.

Anyways, it the first run of the year for this truck.

I’m hoping to run a bunch this weekend if weather allows. If it rains I’m going to finish my 2.5 build and thread.

I would absolutely stop using Kroil penetrant as ARO.. Read the data sheet on it..

I’d strongly recommend that you run a quality fuel (not Traxxas), and an actual after run oil. I do believe you’ll find that with the proper fuel, an ARO won’t even be needed (dependent upon your location)..

Awesome video. Thanks for sharing. I’ve been using 3in1 oil for ARO for the last few years without issue. Doesn’t seem to affect starting.
