Thanks for the shout out man. Credit to JQ for the knowledge. That was sharp identifying the witness marks on the engine mount where it shifted.
@@cbh148 thanks again for the help!
I just came a crossed your channel and checking out a few vids 💯
I apologize if you are already using some of these strategies but, some items to consider:
- Screws/bolts are inexpensive and can cause expensive issues. I always suggest replacing all engine mount bolts (top and bottom) each and every time you take the engine out
Reason being from experience, threads stretch, loc tight fails due to heat and debris or thread are not clean enough, etc (mount inner threads may need to be chased and cleaned at times too).
As I’m sure you know, it’s possible to strip head hex’s too which leads to other unwanted issues
These are just some additional options to try if the engine and/or mount continues to move. Use some 220 grit paper on the chassis plate, mounts and engine flanges. That just helps with some flange to mount grip. Clean everything each time you reassemble and if blue loctite isn’t enough, move up to orange.
Everything above are just some thoughts to consider.
- It’s awesome you are sharing your adventure with everyone. Our hobby has some great people in it. 🩷 Thanks for the vid
@@a2rc All of your suggestions are absolutely fantastic And greatly appreciated! I ran both of my nitro cars last Sunday and coincidentally after changing up my Race prep and Pre-race inspection managed to get into both A mains and make it through the whole day without a single flame out or catastrophic failure. This is a huge win in my book! Hopefully I can find some time later this week to put a video together.
@@gainsrc That's Great to hear! There is no bad day when running Nitro but, it's always a bit better when you don't break anything lol.
Looking forward to your vid from the weekend.
Love the reds 521 i have 3 of them run great crazy power. Ive still struggle to get a nice single stage idle with the carb but they never flame out on 100° outdoor 30 min mains
Super happy with it!!
A local that I run with got one of these 521s for practice to keep the hours off his fancier Reds engine (721 I think?). I can't hang with him even with his "practice" engine, and I think he just ended up racing and doing everything with it because it's been so solid.
Hearing you say about stripping the gears curiosity was killing the cat for me and thinking it’s gotta be the mesh.
I hate having to remove the whole motor mount from the chassis, especially when my gear mesh is set right I rather go the route of having to remove the cooling head if needed just so I can remove the engine from the mount and drop it back in without having to reset the gear mesh.
