Ordered! I need to mount an axle too far forward for a chassis mounted servo to be near it, this should work a treat...back to the scheduled programme!.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

igor1960 Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Impressed by all yours work. Have couple of questions about this engine: 1. Could someone test if this engine will run just on 1 cylinder: meaning what if 1 spark is not powered and gas line disconnected; 2. As it has 2 carburetors, when less power is needed: Is it possible to just close gas line on one of carburetors -- would engine run on 1 cylinder with no or very little load? 3. What is the temperature of an exhaust mixture, did anyone measured it? Thanx, Igor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
