      ahah left it idleing for 25 min let it cool then took it out on the field no more than half throttle, cut out after 20 min boiling hot, looking in the filter one of the 2 screws going into the carb was very loose and the filter had a clear gap between it and the carb, im guessing the air leak lead to this, also been told this on here by a few

    whats a servo saver? ahaha

    1. Oh How Original

      Oh How Original

      Usually it's like a spring loaded mechanism that if your wheels take a hard impacts, it doesn't jolt the steering linkage and servo horn, the spring takes the impact and flexes.

      ohhhhh cheers ahah

      ....it ultimately saves your servos...with out the little bit of give that the saver offers it would strip the gears on your servos like there is no tomorrow.

    cheers mate, by hot i mean hot to touch, something ive not seen before, ive only had the car 2 or 3 weeks but ran 3 times due to bad weather . the reason i was concerned is that it cut out on me, it was very hot and i saw some kind of smoke, not the smoke from exaust, but like boiling a kettle kind of steam? i since found one of the 2 bolts on airfilter was loose with a clear gap, meaning an air leak, since that it runs smoother on factory settings, but becomes hot even at idle very quick. Before the air leak when i applied throttle more than half, and the idle seemed to rise when i went back to no throttle? the plug was brownish with oil and ALOT of smoke when ran
  15. conchp
    would this cause overheating? and it only started getting hot when i reset to factory? also when i apply full throttle the revs stay high ? once its idle
  16. conchp

  21. conchp

    can running to rich make baja engine overheat? cut out?

    1. (-:AD:-)

      (-:AD:-)

      Running lean makes it hot

    2. mark35

      mark35

      Worst you'll do runnin rich is foul ya plug..

  22. conchp
    she starts now, not unless throttle applied otherwise bogs down and cuts?
  23. conchp
    it must be rich also becouse it smoked like anything and the performance was crap
  24. conchp
    just took the car out on factory settings, needs breaking in. after 10- 15 min i brought the car back and as i did it cut out. looking at the car i realised it must be over heating? the flywheel cover felt warm and the head was hot with a breaf 10 seconds maybe more of steam?or faint white smoke, not the type from exaust. i didn't risk it and brang her home, she wasn't ran more than half throttle maybe a tad more when getting stuck in the grass. took the spark out and it had thin oil like liquid on it? ive not touched it since and was going to let it cool before seeing if it would start? any help ?
  25. conchp

    baja engine getting hot on factory needle settings? prior to this it wasnt hardly hot? had to bring the revs down also
