    Jetting by engine temperature?

    I used to own a nitro R/C car (before I realized it was as expensive as owning a blaster ;). The standard jetting procedure for a nitro car was to drive it hard and then take the temperature at the head of the engine to see how hot it was. I would shoot for about 220 degrees Fahrenheit. Has...

    Oil delivery system

    I got this blaster for free from somebody. I know nothing of its history. It runs really well and starts on the first kick in negative temperatures. Anyways, I have always assumed blasters were pre-mix and have been pre mixing. I stumbled across information about removing the oil injector and it...
