[MrRsheridan1232]

hay nice vid im finkin of getting 1 for christmas..... my question is if u dont hav after run oil can u use wd40 istead??

[tommy1234567100]

I want that car where's it from

[mathyses]

where do u buy ur compressed air? i live in surrey and can't find anything

[mathyses]

hey guys anyone know which is better Exceed RC rally monster or Redcat Vortex ss?

[bobcheese427]

@mathyses If your new to the hobby i would bother with either, get a well known make such as traxxas :) search on ebay

[dbraud2525]

do you have to run all the gas out of the motor after every run

[watcher206]

@dbraud2525 nitro has alcohol in it,( witch attracts moisture) so unless you want moisture in your engine,( witch would cause rust in the engine and then you would have to buy a new engine, not good.) it will be necessary to run the motor until it runs out of gas ,if your done running it for the day.

[pupuso13]

go and check my it work fine is call (Nitro pump quitter on a Jato it work whit any nitro car..) go in to my video will put them for sale on ebay..

[RACINGPRO70]

how often should i do the process of "after-run" some say every time you use it  and if you dont use it often use after run procedure once a week?

[stinkymlinky]

@RACINGPRO70 Well if you will leave it not running for more than a day or two you should after run

[MrSnowboarder123ish]

would air out of a air compressor be to harsh for this???

[stinkymlinky]

@MrSnowboarder123ish Absolutely not. These things are tough :)

[leaves1001]

how do u take apart and re oil the differentials?

[stinkymlinky]

@leaves1001 It's pretty obvious once you take them apart. 

[scbjgs]

i've heard of cleaning the cooling fins with rubbing alcohol. is this better/comparable to compressed air?

[stinkymlinky]

@scbjgs yes if you have the time you can do that.

[2005yamahayz125]

hey stinky i just bought a T.A. MGT 8.0 nitro and i was wondering if you knew anything about the truck and had any tips for me. this is my first nitro truck but i had a traxxa sslash and rustler electric for years before i spend the money on one of these

[multiproProductions]

So just running all the fuel out means it will stop the moisture coming into your engine ?

[stinkymlinky]

@multiproProductions Yep.

[MrNEVEX]

@stinkymlinky it's a Go .25 right ?

[olliegamer]

nitro cleaner is good too. what is the centre diff for?

[stinkymlinky]

@olliegamer the center diff distributes the power from the engine to the from/rear wheels, to get the most traction possible.

[24Stiffler]

What size engine you got in that car?.. i am buyin my first car soon i am getting a back wash pro 1/10 scale are they any good?. are they the same as the warhead 2s cause the they have the same engine chassis and shell etc?

[tigger00025]

[stinkymlinky]

@tigger00025 yeah wd-40 is safe to use anywhere around any sort of engine, be it nitro or petrol

[thecatboy53]

Do you have to change all ur diffs or just the middle ones? Pls reply

[stinkymlinky]

@thecatboy53 Well it depends which ones (if any) are broken. For maintenance, just change the oils, and do that for all of them.

[play680]

Can you please make a tut on how to clean or change ur defrienchals plz? cuz i have no idea and idont want to mess somthin up...

[stinkymlinky]

@play680 I will try to at some point, but until then there are other videos on youtube of that :D

[willbillboulton]

Why bother cleaning?

[dudeweresmycarlol]

[hobao14]

[dudeweresmycarlol]

@hobao14 

[fortunauna]

thanks m8 these vids will help me very much when i get my seconds rc nitro car because the first from nitro tek the bug crusher pro dident work proberly so i might try agine with another car thanks :)

[stinkymlinky]

@fortunauna have you still got the bug crusher? if so, tell us the problem and I'll see if i can help

[fortunauna]

@stinkymlinky no i havent got the bug crusher anymore i sent it back but i might save up and buy another one >>:the problem it wouldent idle the wheels keeped on spinning then when i ajusted the screws the wheels would slow down then it would stall . . thanks :D

[stinkymlinky]

@fortunauna aww man that was probs because the low end needle was set way too lean. In future, ask me before you get rid of it :)

[skyline7790]

hi m8 gd vid :)

[stinkymlinky]

cheers :)

[sirhcskater]

Hey, i want to get into rc cars and i want to know what you reccomend for me to start off with nitro or electric what company what i should look for etc... Thanks!

[dudeweresmycarlol]

@sirhcskater it depends if u want to tune it all the time and stuff get a nitro if u dont want that much maintnence get an eletric but nitro cars arnt that much harder to care for than a eletric and if u get a nitro every time u use it take the glo plug out of the motor and put some sowing machine oil in about 2/3 drop will save ur engien cause sowing machine oil and after run oil is the same just after run oil is much more over prised its called after run oil cause its just a markiting tool YEA
