Nitro MT2 Issues

Usually they just change it. Thats wierd that they didnt. Maybe you can find a cheap piston and sleeve if you want to keep your engine.

As I stated before I have already replaced the engine with the .18; I will rebuild the .15 so I can one learn and two not be without my truck. I have emailed HPI to see if them (on the outside change) will work a deal since the truck is so new. I will keep you upto date. I don't think I'll buy HPI again.

Just a quick note: I took the .15 HPI engine apart tonight. Therer was a lot of residue (I think Carbon) build up in the area below the piston. I have also notices that the top of the piston had small nicks on one of the edges. I also noticed nicks in the smooth area where the head goes, very small but then again the engine is small. I am not impressed with the quality control at HPI; at least with this engine.

Thats too bad, HPI should have def changed it for you. You should let them know what you found.

Tonight I am going to take pictures and post them, working on weapons I know that you always have some slight imperfections so I want to see if these are normal or not.
