My revo takes to much gas

[Revodude]

I have a revo 2.5R. I've had it about 2 years. It drinks gas like crazy and i don't know why. My friend has a 3.3, bigger engine and drinks way less gas then mine, I run a full tank of gas for only about 10 mins. on this kind of rate I'm going to have to buy a gallon like ever week.Please help me.

There could be a lot of factors that would contribute to how much fuel your Revo uses compared to your buddy's.
Your tune could be set too rich, your shift point might be wrong, you might have bearings that are sticky or worn. Tire size and gear ratios would also be a factor.

What are your operating temps? Does it seem to run ok?

Your buddy may be running too lean... where yours lasts 2 years, his may only last 6 months.

If your buddies 3.3 is newer he may have the 150cc tank where you only have a 125cc.

10 minutes is great for a 125cc tank!
i have a OS 21 TM and a 160cc tank and I can barely go 8 minutes!

RE:my operating temps are around 210 to about 240
