I feel as its time to check my ofna force .25 for leaks.
I got it used as you all know, and I've already got about 2.5 quarts through it. And I feel like its running empty quicker and I'm pretty sure the motor has some nitro around it.
So what should I check? How do I check bearings?
Thanks guys!
 
Well one of the head screws is stripped out. Anything I can do about that?


Update.
Heated and broke free. New screw will be placed in.
Will continue inspecting. But I'm 99 percent sure I need bearings.
Is it worth buying bearings if I plan to reserve it when she dies?
I've been doing great with this motor and wanna keep it around!

how many gallons does it have on it??
you can get a new set of boca bearings for around 35 bucks if that's what is causing your leaks
 
I have no idea to be honest... T has life left and I wanna continue using it after it gives..
I know the force.26 is the exact same thing and even the piston and sleeve will work.

On another note...
I'm calling FedEx today to flip crap.my 801xt was supposed to be here by Friday and they've move it all the way to Tuesday.
Its like an hour away they can't deliver that to me? Or Monday?
What happened to having it there on time

Just updated, on vehicle for delivery. It doesn't make it here I sweat I'll never use FedEx again. Hong Kong ships faster seriously.


Rant over guys. Sorry.
Just want my new toy!!
