im bored at work
Official yack away thread - motoxer4life - 12-23-2007
i got a random question and to make a long story short, a guy at the track said he had 50 gallons on an rc engine lol. I told him i didint think they even got past 15 but he said for sure. Idk, his engines looked old but not 50 f'in gallons. so is it possible? I dont think so.

If you keep rebuilding it...
Official yack away thread - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 12-23-2007
or u just do slow circles in the parking lot; the dudes prolly full of shit
Official yack away thread - J-Dub - 12-23-2007
You figure a gallon of fuel is like 6 hours of run time.
so 50 Gallons is 300 Hours. Unless he rebuilds them I doubt a Nitro engine would EVER last that long.
Official yack away thread - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 12-23-2007
theres just no way. You would wear the chrome off the sleeve
Official yack away thread - motoxer4life - 12-23-2007
Ya, he kept saying that he needed a new sleeve, and he didint say anything about doing it before.
Official yack away thread - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 12-23-2007
ya my motors have 22 gallons on them, I get about 17minutes per tank of gas as well
Official yack away thread - hansarvin - 12-23-2007
50 gallons on the same engine with the same components (p/s, crank, bearings)... no. On the same crankcase with all new internals every 10 gallons or so I guess it could be done, but I'm no expert...
Official yack away thread - mikeh - 12-23-2007
Yeah, and my Grandpa used to saw he had George Washingtons hatchet! The handle was replaces 4 times and the axe head twice!

but it would be cheaper and better to just get the new engine.
Official yack away thread - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 12-23-2007
better? maybe not, cheaper to buy new? god yes
Official yack away thread - motoxer4life - 12-23-2007
ya, plus they were traxxas motors
Official yack away thread - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 12-23-2007
oh shit well then they DEFINETLY dont have that much fuel on them, maybe 5 gallons but thats pushing it
Official yack away thread - J-Dub - 12-23-2007
Lol its true, my average TRX engine lasted like 6
Official yack away thread - rocco79 - 12-23-2007
Reasons why the guy who told you that is full of shit..
- The rpms these mills turn is so high (and unbalanced) there is no way they can last tha long
- The materials they are made of arent 100,000 mile materials
- The fuel they burn... See how long anything last running on NITRO-methane!
- Their design. They just arent designed to last that long, i mean C'mon! They are a ringless designed motor.
