Hpi Rs4 3rtr

[joneser4u]

with me having the 3ss, I think I got a good deal on a 3rtr for 100 bucks for my wife,the only thing it needs is a clutch and a set of tires, and a good cleaning? then I disasembled it to clean it and investagate everything and I took the head off to see the piston and sleeve of the 15fe, The top of the piston is black? completely black? the guy said he never tuned the engine? that whatever it was set from the factory was where it still was, so my question is can it hurt an engine to run it breakin, without retuning? he said he had only run like 2 quarts through it. And what is the black stuff? the engine runs good after it warms up so I'm confused? it looks like it ought to be hurt?

It is ok, it ran rich so it is fine, the black you are wondering bout is carbon build up from it running really rich.
It is fine, tune it and it will be all good and most of the black will get burned off. (not all, but most)

its ready if your ready...being ready does not mean you'll win just that you can race. those older boys will have some money in their toys.
