Supercharged Savage

[busterman88]

I just purchased and installed the RB Innovations Supercharger on a Ofna
.32 engine i richened it 1/4 as it said in the manual. I also installed the reverse module. but my trouble when i brake the engine cutts off. Does this has to do something with the needles or is it the supercharger. also when i run the truck is running for about 3-4 seconds it stays in neutral. but i think i know whats wrong with the gearing. need help with the engine trouble asap.
Thaks,

If it's cutting when you brake, your idle stop screw is probably set wrong. The carb is probably closing all the way when you hit the brakes. Make sure that when you hit the brakes, the carb stays open about 1mm.

Its the Supercharger for sure....J/K
Adjust your idle...
Why did you get the SC.?

definitely

definitely the idle screw if it dies when you hit the brakes. :idea: Turn it clockwise to give it more idle. Pull the air filter off, and look down the carb body to make sure the needle is not closed all the way. turn the idle adjustment clockwise till there is about 1mm of opening.

If it is taking more time than you like to get the truck going when you pull the trigger, then your clutch setup may be your problem there. :idea: The shoes may be worn, or the springs may be too stiff. Some motors, especially big big big blocks like a .32, wont spin the clutch enough at low speeds to engage them like a .26 or smaller mill. I would take a look at the clutch shoes to see if they are worn. if they are not worn, I might look at a different strength spring.

At least that's been my experience. Good luck! Bigcod
