[rocco79]

Ok... These are in your price range... They will prolly be good till you can get somthin better...

Like i said, they may not be great but will do fine.. And will make great back-up pipes to somthin better

BTW... Dynamite has a new line of pipes with stingers like the jp line

thanks

[kevinF]

well i got a sportwerks 053 hard anodized....and wow i hav a lot of more top and low end..

but I blew a plug in just one tank didnt even run out of gas and it shut off, so im thinking somethin went wrong with the piston/ or what do you guys think?

[kevinF]

any ideas guys?

[rocco79]

maybe too lean... Richen and re-try... New pipe can throw a tune off too.

I love the 053 pipes... How much for it?

[Traxxas_Junkee]

What was the temp?

yeah me too.....it was only $50

also you guys think this is my problem to blowing plugs or no, just my tune??? im thinking my tune, and the sleeve is not messed up its perfectly fine

[kevinF]

its really not deep, barely feelable with your finger, but I dunno, i doubt it would ruin the plugs

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

dude that thing is done, u might had some metal chip off the rod or sumthing like a huge piece of dirt, hope christmas comes early for ya bud

[kevinF]

hahah yup.........damnit...........so you think thats whyits blowin plugs?

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

yes lol its prolly running like chit too, take another hard look at the rod, there has got to be alot of play in it on the crank

[kevinF]

ahhhhhh well the rod had a little gouge and the part where it attaches to the crank one side is all scratched up

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

the bushing spun and floated around ur motor, then the rod stretched and it prolly goes up alot higher in the stroke now which "creates" too much compression and u blow out plugs

[Traxxas_Junkee]

He said it was running good though.

[Czech-it-Out Graphics]

until it started blowing plugs, that kinda stuff happens fast at 40k rpms lol

[kevinF]

yeah it runs great, real strong untill 1 tank of gas is allmost out then just dies and blows the plug


im gonig to go talk to santa and see if christmas will be 3 months early for me....lol

[rocco79]
