I just picked up a Sirio S-18TX-PTR Pull start motor to replace the tired TRX 2.5 in my T Maxx. The description said it already had a pull start and replaced the original T Maxx engine. I intend to use the EZ start electric starter.
After I got it I realized that Sirio also sells the S-18 TX 18 designed specificall to replace the 2.5 TRX. My concern is that the engine I got will not be a direct bolt-up.
I have a spare Pro .15 EZ Start system, so I'm not really worried about that. My concern relates to the engine mount, clutch and flywheel, or any other fitment issues.
Has anyone ever used this particular engine in a newer T Maxx with a 2.5? Is there anything I will need to replace to get this engine to work? Thanks alot.
