revo 3.3 engine mount problem

[JohnSampson]

My revo 3.3 motor mount keeps coming loose I have tried locktight, it's more that screw that is use to adjust the angle of the engine any ideas about how to fix this

Take it apart and clean it really well with alcohol, then rough up the contact areas where the mount pinches the part the engine bolts too on both the mount/engine part, then tighten it back down.

Although, you sure the threads are stripped for the pivot bolt (one closest to the edge of the chassis)? Or are you hitting the head on the ground bending/forcing the engine to move? That can be remedied by getting a rear wing and new era 3 point roll bar so the engine doesn't make contact with the ground on roll overs.

You can also try getting a longer bolt and put a locknut on the end where it comes out the front side of the mount.

I have a BB engine in mine and it doesn't move around at all.

At least make sure you have a star washer on the bolt, but you may have a broken mount.

I have a picco max .26 I'm not sure if might be overpowering it do you think it might be the spur gear and clutch bell being bigger ?

I think it's broken. You should pull it apart and check.
No engine can overpower the revo's mount.

Sounds like something is loose or cracked.
