get rid of the optidrive unless you want your throttle to lock in and take off. thats what happened to mine and the whole front end nedded rebuilt because it went right into a wall. you still ahev stearing when it locks in. a drop of water willl make that crappy optidrive die.
1:06 LMAO.........you should have warmed it up and started your video over. is it really that much better than the traxxas engine? i was gonna buy one for my revo, but not sure if it's worth the `$120.
thanks aloot its my birthday and i ame definitly going to by that. and you know that pipe that you bought when your done with it tell me and i will by it off of you
What are you doing to prime the engine? You should be taking off the pressure line from the exhaust and blowing in it. Blow for about one second after the fuel reaches the carb with the slide closed. It's the most consistant way to prime it. Also if you're using after run oil, try wd-40 instead. It'll start much easier. Also you say sometimes you have to richen it? Richening the high needle or low? Richening the high needle helps nothing for startup.
My .21TM runs great, easy starts, good idle, never dies. But it runs way HOT. So hot that if I put the body on the Revo the engine reaches well above 300 degrees.
The sad part is that the engine really wants to run HOTTER! It is plenty rich, but for now only has as much power as a trx 3.3.
If I leaned it out I know there would be more power but the temps are just so high. I really don't know what to do.
hey im thinking about getting anew eninge cuase my 3.3 likes dick and idk if i should get the os 21 or a 4.6 or anyhting better just let me know some one
dude, just prime your engine a bit. i take the pressure hose of from the muffler and blow into it, you will see the fuel go through the fuel line to the carb. once it reaches the carb open it to WOT for about 2 seconds. re-attatch the pressure line and pull.
ive also got a .21tm. i started mine for the first time in months today by primming it like i said and it went FIRST pull.
also are you using the single chamber resonator or the double?
is it a direct bolt on?

You probably have an air leak. Look up nitro engine sealing on you tube. That might solve your problem.
