  • Hi guys, thank you for waching this video, Welcome to Torque Nitro where we talk nitro. This is the first video of many to come!
    I tried my best to restore this Vintage 2001 Kyosho Pure Ten V-one S. In the next video I will fix the exhaust, shell post & we will take it for a rip.
    Please note I may have made specification mistakes, however I tried to be as accurate as possible with my research.
    Comment what you want to see next & take it easy!

      Agree Man. That second speed is a game changer. Though it does slowly damage the second gear fast even setting it to engage at low speed.

      @@TheMrchips25 yeah it does that’s true, almost impossible to set a perfect mesh on a two speed, my trick was to just buy a shitload of spare gears 😂 they wear rather slowly though so kinda good in that regard.

    Hello, I picked up my V one S from my parents, which is over 15 years old. I would like to restore it but I have no knowledge. What do you recommend ? It was my father-in-law who took care of the mechanics and I drove.

    • @torquerc4859
      @torquerc4859  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey there mate,
      I guess the first step would be cleaning the chassis to be able to properly check all screws, plastics & belts are in good shape.
      To clean use degreaser and a brush to agitate everything. Dry with compressed air.
      After cleaning, I’d oil all bearings.
      From there, you can add some oil to the cylinder (remove the glow plug, replace with OS#8 plug if required).
      After removing the glow plug, use a hairdryer to warm up the engine for a while, then attempt to use the recoil hand starter to turn over the engine.
      For the carburettor, use some fuel line & a syringe to push a small amount of methylated spirits into the carb. This will help clear it.
      Ideally, I would recommend a full engine tear down and deep clean, but I am aware you are new to this. That’s ok.
      After that you’ll need fuel, a charged igniter and a check of all electronics to ensure they’re working properly.
      Start it on a block of wood and let it warm up, then you can begin tuning.
      That should get you going for now man, you can do it 👌🏽🙌🏽
