Hi,
Ive got a hyper Vs with the turbo engine.
I've put about 10 tanks through it 25% nitro, and i'm at the stage where i would like to tune it for a little more performance.
I had some problems with starting it for its first couple of tanks, at factory break in settings the carb woudnt let any fuel through and I had to open the LSN quite a lot to get it to start, same with the HSN
The LSN was 2 mm out from flush, and the HSN flush with the brass outer ring. absolutely no where near factory settings.
The smoke produced by the engine is unreal clouds and clouds of the stuff, I can lean the HSN to reduce it a little and get a little more power and also the LSN to get a little more punch. The problem is that when i go to restart the engine I have to put the carb back to the known good settings which are crazy crazy rich. Without changing the carb settings the engine stays reasonably cool, but any adjustment to the LSN/HSN the engine wont pass the spit test even though its pumping smoke out like crazy.
Im not interested in max performance but i would like to get it a little faster than factory with a lot less smoke, and find a setting that i know will start.
I've got loads of pinch so i dont think its a compression problem, does this sound like an air leak ?
can anyone offer any advice ?
Im not after race performance im happy to have smoke and a longer lasting engine but iim just a little worried im going in the wrong direction
