Sparks flying at clutch area, normal? ?. Too close to fuel tank, not comfortable w it.

Probably not normal, dude why are u not comfortable with it?? It will make it nightdriver! What's not cool about that ?? check the clutch cuz i don't think that's normal, maybe a bolt backed out and it flying around?

 

[ZRC]

Took it apart and didn't see anything abnormal. This is my first time testing the car at night. Only sparks on initial engagement.

Could have something to do with the compound of the clutch shoes....

 

[ZRC]

Probably. I was hoping for bad clutch. ?
Honestly, not seeing any metallic compound. I've seen more metallic on automotive brake pads and no spark.

Was just a thought... many not such a good one..kinda getting late for my tired brain

Probably something got stuck in there. XR is a dirt magnet. Gotta come up with something to keep debris out. Will test it again tomorrow night.

From my KM 5T but the motor is an HY32 Redcat. The original 36cc locked up but now repaired. I'm going to put it back in my KM.

How it works... you've had a bad string of luck with engines..
*hope it works

Me too. This would be my 3rd engine failures, due to cheap materials and manufacturer defects.

Glad I decided not to rebuild my rovan 30.5cc, cuz same thing woulda happened. It's just no good. Also some random ass dude was bragging his rovan motor lasts 2.5 gallons ???? u know there bad when ???? or he's just a idiot ??

I would think 2 stroke motors last longer than that.
