quick t-maxx question

[mikecooper]

I was wondering if it is bad to run the t-maxx without the part that goes on top of the engine head, the one that the glowplug quick start cord goes through
here is a pic of it


***EDIT***Returned to original post, for those that may have this problem

the black head cover? Dont worry about it, its just so the head doesnt get scratched. I lost mine on the 6th tank and never bought another.

yea there really nice until they fall off.....

[mikecooper]

haha right after I edited the post, you both reply, thanks for the quick reply though.

Then you put zip ties thru the head to do the same job and they never come off.

[DAVEC-NITRO-RS4]

You might want to protect the blue wire from rubbing on the head.

[mikecooper]

ok thanks dave, I was thinking the same thing, because I don't want it to melt the wire.

[Tex]

it won't melt the wire unless your excessively lean and overheating

[Traxxas_Junkee]

u could throw one of the heat things that go around the fuel and vent lines, if you are that worried about it.

[DAVEC-NITRO-RS4]

or fuel line or shrink tubing...see how productive this got once you put the picture back...everyone chimes in.
