Bigjimknickers Posted March 7, 2015 Author Share Posted March 7, 2015 Thanks guys, I know sambas are great all rounders, but I just fancied something different, I've just took it up the road & it's got some beans!! I'll get a vid & try a tune tomorrow hopefully, I'm impressed, sounded great & I really like the power delivery! Next mod: ESP head kit... ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Nice, be a while before I upgrade my engine, the 23cc is more than enough for me at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 And now the little 23cc has a 990 carb and ADA intake manifold she should go even better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigjimknickers Posted March 7, 2015 Author Share Posted March 7, 2015 I'm kidding really, I will get the head kit, but only when I'm bored of the 23cc, & from what I've seen what people can get from it, looks like it'll be a while yet for me. I need a killswitch next, just need to decide 2ch or 3ch. Then alloy clutch carrier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigjimknickers Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 Killswitch ordered, time to stop the spending now! Next is alloy FiD clutch carrier & engine mount, but not just yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Had a quick run again today and had some fuel coming out of the breather hole on the fuel cap, after a quick search I relise that this is completely normal, but it's a pain for me as I'm trying to keep the buggy as clean as possible and the smell to a minimum as it lives indoors. My question is, has anyone done a breather mod to their fuel cap or tank? If so what did you use for a the breather filter? I've got a spare clunk/filter that I could use?

Carpmart Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I've used MX breathers on Baja's to good effect previously AJ. A plethora of these is available on eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carpmart Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Any particular reasons you've gone HiTec and Rhino route with servos? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I was recommended them by a friend and very successful racer, he said don't go anywhere near Savox large scale servos, he saw 20+ die at LSOR last season for no reason 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, just ordered one of thesehttp://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=131450508305 Just need to find a suitable nipple to fit in the fuel cap now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carpmart Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I have mixed success with Savox... They either die quickly or prove to be great and reliable servos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.AJ. Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I'm going to stick the breather out of the fuel cap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkpalmer Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Not sure if this will fit the dbxl fuel tank? http://abbotsrc.co.uk/Snappy-RC-Ultimate-Fuel-Line-Kit-for-HPI-Baja-5B5T-P1991799.aspx Don't forget to block the vent hole in the gas cap with a grub screw or something else!

.AJ. Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Im going to open up the existing hole with a drill bit and fit a 1/8 x 3.2mm hose tail, then fix the breather to that, got it all sussed already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.AJ. Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Mine doesn't leak, where's exactly is your leaking? I'm running larger fuel tubing tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigjimknickers Posted March 10, 2015 Author Share Posted March 10, 2015 The grommet has enough play for the fuel tube to move about! So it soaks from the top of the grommet, I can get thicker fuel tubes though, that will sort it but from where? Will Apex have thicker than stock?

.AJ. Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Ahh ok, you want Tygon fuel pipe, I dont think Apex will have any, but I may be wrong http://www.freeprawnracing.co.uk/genuine-tygon-fuel-line-1-8-3.2mm-bore-30-cm-length.html It's a very tight fit in the grommet, but I opened up the hole a touch with a rimmer Talking of fuel tanks, I've been talking to chap about them and he says that the FID is worthy upgrade, it's bigger, better grommet and also you can take the tank out without removing the engine, I'm going to order one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
