  1. why do you need a enclosed clutch? is it a big nono to open? i have the integy one thats like an alloy version fo the standard and a vented clutch bell

  7. It would be a good idea to try out the King Motors T1000 (its a "clone" of the baja 5T). Many people are very happy with the quality of the cars and i know i for one would jump at the chance to grab a T1000.
  8. i normally use a TGN outer foam and oil the inner foam with K&N red air filter oil, the red lets you see how evenly the oil is distributed and how much you have put on it i put the filter in a carrier bag (with no holes) spray a load of K&N oil all over it and keep squeezing and rubbing the filter untill its red all over (more like pink)
  9. well i havnt had a chance to get pics up yet so here they are... of one of them after my little accident yes i know thats a baja wing, its all i had lying round and it has a hole in it so put it to use and yes i know those filters are supposedly very bad for engines (considering i have only been running on dusty tarmac/gravel)but it has a stock filter oiled up inside it they are both 26cc, one is anodised gold and along with the "slicks" which btw are lasting forever! i have 2 full sets of wheels with plenty of tread left (gold and pink) great cars but nothing compared to a baja will be rebuilding these and selling them on so its a good job i have brand new parts to replace that rear corner with along with the spares package etc, not bad for £300 methinks, be happy if i break even once postage is taken into account but thats life
  10. if you mean the type which lets you charge the battery without unplugging anything (3way) i dont think i have, but if you just want a normal switch you can come pick one up free
  11. what do you use them for?
  12. well i got my 2 marders and first thing i did was go out to the garden, mix up some nice fresh fuel and start one up, started 3rd pull so gave it a quick blast round the garden (bogging like mad) so tuned it a bit and it started running fine. left it to idle away and took the pullstart off put the pullstart on the other engine (the second one has a snapped string) and it started up but cut out whenever i gave it any throttle so i just left it at that, one was running so i was happy. on sat i took the second car to the park to try and get it tuned but it was just starting up for a second and then cutting out, had a fiddle witht he carb settings and now it doesnt even try should it just need tuning? i have put a brand new plug in it (CMR7H) but that engine has no gasket on the carb so im thinking maybe thats the problem? anyone know what gasket it is? as i have a pack of gaskets and none of them are round in the middle and i think you can get different sized ones? cheers and sorry about the long post forgot to mention! after i changed the plug it started to make a "ting" when i pulled the pullstart quickly but didnt do it if i did it slowly... any ideas?
  13. how often does the piston ring need replacing?
