Hey guys I put a Traxxas "Roar" resonator on this Revo and it runs great, but check out this line after 4 tanks of fuel. I just put new fuel line when the resonator was installed notice other line. It's Traxxas line. So far no issue just never had new line discolor this quick. Also look at how dark the end of resonator hose is. Also installed new boots for exhaust at same time. Any ideas? My other Roar resonators haven't done this. Thanks.

Ok just pulled hose, not oil/exhaust. Heat?

I run the same resonator on my revo and have never had the line or boot discolor like that! Never seen it before either. What are your temps looking like? If your running that hot then you need to richen it up or possibly check for air leaks.
 
I always get a "yellow" exhaust gas line when i use O'donnell fuel

Thats the only thing different!!!!. My temps are great 230-250 but i did pick up a qt of O'donnell 20% and have been running it since i put on resonator. Thanks, Its all good now. but never had fuel change tubing color before.:D:whhooo: its tuned well and running like a champ. I did go ahead and change lines and gave it a once over.
