fouled plugs

I've never heard anything negative about Gizmos. You should be Ok, on need to worry.

I got a confirmation email from ddm for my vent kit but not from gizmotors for my 990 I hope it sends or I'm gonna be one cranky mofo

Don't sweat it, dude. Giz has great service!

 

[clydebarrow]

Got my confirmation from giz it was in my spam folder........lol

 

[Deluge1]

Foiled by your spam folder!

Parts are in ..........ummmmm really stupid question I got the brass fittings for the vent kit but not 100% sure where they go....lol.......sorry I'm new to all this I got a lot to learn

 

[Guest]

The snappy fittings go into the fuel tank gromet. The idea is to get a third line to let air flow into the tank.

They go in the tank grommet. One on the return line and one on the pickup line. Don't forget to slide a piece of fuel line over the barbs at the top of the fitting, that'll create a better seal between the grommet and the fitting.

OK I think I'm close just wish I knew how to upload the pic of the plug for a better opinion

Anyone got a link to a good set of body clips they magically disappear

A local hobby shop would be your best bet. If you don't have a local shop, I'd get these...

might be a stupid question but I see nobody asked you are mixing the proper amount of oil with the gas?

 

[clydebarrow]

Yea I ran it a bit ago everything seems great .....I did find that my throttle linkage was set wrong not letting it touch the idle screw ...... dunno how that happened

 

[Deluge1]

For the linkage, pull the horn off, center the servo and put the horn back on as straight as possible. Use the throttle trim to adjust it from there.

Anything between 20:1 - 32:1 you will be ok.

 

[Deluge1]

Some of the boat guys I talk to use 16:1. That's a bit rich for me, though. 32:1 is about right, for me. I want to try 40:1, eventually.

I ran a gallon of 100:1 Amsoil Sabre. I didn't notice a difference, so I went back to my 50:1 snowmobile oil.

I found a quart of Klots R/C oil back in 07-08, I really liked it, but the smell reminded me too much of Monster HP nitro fuel. Yuck!

 

[Guest]

I feel more comfortable having at least 32:1 or more oil. I want the extra oil so I can run a good lean tune.

 

[rampage idiot]

Exactly I am still running 25:1 and still never fouled a plug

 

[Deluge1]

You must have it tuned pretty good.
