Simple and easy to follow steps . You tell it like it is. My rovan Baja 36cc is running great . New gears ..new pipe ..thanks for all your help. God bless you and your family. Keep it tight and right Chris 👍
Chris thank you brother Im real happy to hear your 36 is running great and you’re having fun! That is the name of the hobby game FUN! You are more than welcome and thank you brother God bless you and your family to bro!
@@eastsidercI noticed a fella having tuning issues at the track with his losi 5t. Stopped and applied some eastside rc tuning and he was grippin n rippin in no time. One pull startup now, and he was way lean on both screws 😮
@@thatoneguy2756 hey good for you brother thats what its about helping one another out. You saved him an engine. I dont care how much oil is in the fuel lean is lean and its mean on engine internals. Keep up the great work brother
😂😂😂 thats Awesome brother! Much love right back! I just like to have fun and enjoy life. Ive made sound effects since I was a kid now Im just big kid with responsibilities 😂!
LOL haha I hear ya bro been there. sounds like your low needle could be a little too rich that is a general problem when getting the low a little to happy! Theres a fine line for the low and high and its rewarding when you hit it. Sounds like you’re doing good. Its better to be a little fat than too lean!
Hey Allen Im glad you liked it brother! Just trying to help some brap brothers out new or long timers! Glad you liked it brother! Your Vekta sure came out nice ….shew!
Very helpful Jeff I couldn't get my rovan 45cc running right so took carb a part and brought rebuild kit runs great now tested in my garden both my Baja are running good gonna be good summer keep on brapppping
This applies to gords to Man absolutely! Being that your engine pulls a human, you want to give it as much fuel as it possibly can without falling on its face that will really help your takeoff . If you’re engine will idle all day long your low is too lean not lean enough to hurt the engine, but lean enough to slack on power.. Good luck on it man tuning is my favorite thing about RC and two strokes in general! Hope you have a great weekend Man
Nice. Expert advice from the expert. Praise Jesus for the tips and tricks. From my heart to yours. I'm no good. But Jesus redeemed me. Praise to the king of kings during these dark times. A great how to vid to distract me from my battles
Not yet soon I will. Mike gives the stock settings for the carb on his website bro. I believe its 1 1/2 out on the low and 2 and a pinch 🤏 out on the high.
Walbro generally come at base settings and you don’t wanna go further than a quarter turn in lean from that setting if you would like to start excessively rich and tune down from there, you can set the carb at 1 1/2 out on the low and 1 and 7/8 out on the high
Hello I am somewhat new to 1/5 scale my name is Steve I watch all your videos I would really love to be able to talk to you about tuning and 2 stroke oil mixtures. God Bless
Hey Steve I appreciate you bro. You can look me up on Facebook and private message me. My profile is my pic with a Taylor hat on and Jeff Lohr is the full name on it. Just PM me and Ill get back to ya as soon as I can. God bless you too brother thank you for your support! Honored to help. 🙏🤝🇺🇸
So in the goped tuners world we are told that since we are pushing a body weight with these small engines that they perform alot better if we bury the idle screw all the way in and adjust the tune accordingly from there. Like 90% of the community is doing this currently. Is there any truth for this being the case for our tuning? Or should we tune the idle screw how u say to do it?
That is called the bartolone tune and brother that is not good . You are simulating a vacuum leak. The idle screw is there, because the idle has a circuit for adjustment, burying it all the way in is just totally not right and that is not smart at all. You should turn the idle screw just how I say to do it. pulling a heavy body is like me pulling nine gear sets above stock gears. All you need is fuel you need a nice fat low to get you going. Fuel makes power. So to answer your question brother no there is no truth in burying the idle needle. I hope that helps. Tuning is an art not many can grasp it for the tune to be optimal. Optimal is key for making all the power you can.
Yup or less , what’s happening there is the engine loads up with fuel and cuts off. So a simple blip of the throttle clears it out and keeps it running. But two strokes really shouldn’t be idling for long periods of time. That is what kills weed eaters and chainsaws all the idling while people are cleaning up. Idling two strokes over n over n over really does them no good. Idle n rev to warm up then get the fun started.
@@eastsiderc yes..I already try..at first im worried why my engine cut off just like that when on idle..so i got the answer..so its normal the engine cut off after 30 seconds..thank you

Im going to soon do an actual running vid with my new car so you fellas can hear the difference between too rich too lean and optimal and conventional. Be sure to Subscribe so you dont miss it. I help people thats what I do for the hobby!
will you pray for me and sometimes I feel like ending my life cuz I'm having a hard time overcoming my porn addiction and my lust and I just think God knows I'm not able to be saved because God don't answer my prayers
Well brother dont ever think about ending your life man. Nothing is ever ever worth killing yourself over. Its simply not worth it. None of us are perfect. We all fall short of Gods glory Romas 3:23 NKJV never loose hope man. Keep on trying to turn your cheek to it. I used to have bad addictions and I was able to overcome them with the power of Jesus’s acceptance of Love and Grace. We cant buy it we cant earn it its freely given bro. Free !! If you have asked Jesus into your heart and you are saved then you are saved plain and simple! Your spirit is Saved from your flesh’s past present and future sins. Its not a free ticket to sin there will be consequences but just try to do your best man! Im not at all perfect by any means but my spirit is because I accepted Jesus therefore I have His perfect Spirit within me. When you learn how to harness that you will get a renewing of your mind bro and you wont wanna do the things your doing now and you will simply turn away from your sin. These things dont happen over night. Its like a seed when its planted there is time and a process that brings forth the plant that is to be. Dont give up. Dont loose hope. Life is beyond worth living! Jesus loves you man! That’s enough to live for. ! I will pray 🙏 for you homie! Never ever ever loose hope! You belong to Jesus the Father of Love and Truth not satan the father of lies and deceit!
I know I shouldn't think about ending my life and that's true none of us are perfect and I am trying not to lose hope and I already said the Salvation prayer but how do you know if you believe it with your heart and sometimes I can go with a few days without watching porn and I will try my hardest to not give up and I know Jesus loves me and I understand what you are saying and I want to thank you for praying for me and I've been playing Diablo 4 but some people say it's demonic or is there certain games you don't post the play
I feel like my carb is adjusted very well, the needle is set so the throttle lever is barely moved, I adjusted the pop off pressure down to about 22psi, and I’m using the spiral diaphragm in my 1107/1191 on the 30degree 38cc. It always floods out eventually.
@@eastsiderc it floods after about a 5-10 minute run. Starting from your recommendation on baseline needle settings I work my way in. Once I feel like it’s dialed in I continue to drive it but it just floods eventually. It’s a sudden change of running well to running like 💩 to be honest I couldn’t mimic the sounds effects like you 👍🏻
so the low tune is just for idle ? and the high is for like max rpms ? right ?? so i should set my low screw to idle like pops or to where its about to turn off ? im tryna tune my buddies 46 cc go ped bigfoot motor has this carb and it bogs when taking off but still goes fast once it takes off . is it supposed to bog a bit ?
The low is for low end not idle. But your idle once correctly set will change with the low. To lean idles fast . Too rich wont idle at all. You find the happy medium. That is what tuning is all about finding the sweet spot or happy medium where both the low and high are working together simultaneously while the trigger is wide open!!
Mr tight and right I have a question whats the best clutch assembly for a baja mine seen to hit the taylor transmission box. You should do some fans cars im sure for a price need some help if not asking for to much I watch your videos you no your stuff brother. 😂
Hi brother a question to ask you, I want to buy Taylor 35cc v2 can we mount WT990 on steel axle bearing with spring tarer for G340 on this 35cc engine thanks to you
@@eastsiderc hi brother I received my Taylor 35cc with two heat insulators for the carburetor, one narrow and one wide, which is the best for the engine for good operation, thank you
@michel3777 the wide one should be good hope ya have some happy brapping bro! Sorry for the late reply. I do my best to get back to everyone that comments! I appreciate your support brother! Im here to help
Sounds like it could be a carb problem or possibly a linkage problem check your linkage and make sure the throttle lever is opening all the way on the carb. If that is good then you could possibly be to rich or too lean. If its not cutting out on top and just gurgling or sounding like a weed eater that wont clean out then your high needle is too rich and will need to be leaned in very tiny increments until you achieve nice high rpms. A mini tachometer cane help you with a lot to show you if you are going in the right direction or not! Happy brapping to ya bro! Have a great day . I hope that helps ya
Sorry man I dont have a link I share all that information here on the channel. One of the vids I show and explain how to tune on the high n low needles . Basically just make small adjustments tiny ones. And from base settings dont go more than a quarter turn lean of you can hurt the engine.
@dancj10 yes bro right clockwise lean counterclockwise left rich. So when making adjustments picture a clock in your head, you’re adjustments will be every 15 minutes give or take if you follow me looking at it as a clock pattern. You can also look at it in the way of a pie and when you’re tuning the carburetor you’re making little slices in the pie.
Maybe im a lil slow or whatever but it is rocket science 😂😂 im having issues with my new Taylor 35 its usually the first start it seems to flood out super fast i pull the cord slow thru a few times choke on n bam shes flooded all thsi after prime but i watch a few videos n im hoping i got the tune right these can get very finicky and i getting irritated at times once i learn wla lil more i think ill be ok but thanks for all the awesome videos brother,💪
Hey bro Im sorry I shouldn’t say things like that. Ive been doing this for years and its easy for me and my ear is trained to an optimal tune. I’ll give you a tip, if you are priming your engine with the slow pulls and its not freezing cold outside you dont need the choke bro. Because priming the carb brings fuel to the carb only. Once to the carb if you pull the cord slowly pop pop pop you are now drawing raw fuel into the engine with each pull. Then putting the choke on shuts all the air off and only gives the engine even more fuel thus flooding it out. So try no choke after an engine prime . Another way is this …care sat for a day a week two days what ever. Prime the bulb a couple times to circulate fuel then set the choke and start pulling as soon as you hear engine pop or go ding da ding ding and cut off. Stop turn the choke off and proceed to pull start the engine. You may need a little blip of the trigger when she fires off. I hope that helps bro. A high performance engine floods easy just like a chainsaw. They can be flooded sooooooo easy with incorrect starting methods. I hope that helps you buddy! Have a great night🤝
Hey good morning buddy I did what ya said with no choke n been fine I took my plug out after I tried to tune it n it's turning a cardboard color is that good seems it may need a lil more tunning like a smidge but I gotta get two new servos n better kill switch n Ima he brappin
@@eastsiderc is there a theory to how much you adjust the low needle as to how much you would move the high , I'm really having troubles getting my Taylor 35 to take off like it should with stock gearing in my VEKTA5
Do you have any experience with an engine that needs a rebuild? I got a used 26cc ss that has no power no matter what I do. I can hold the thing back with my foot even after replacing the clutch
Just getting into 5th scale stuff. I come from a heavy nitro background though. Man im glad a lot of this tuning stuff crosses over, 20 years is a lot of tuning experience to go to waste.
Hey man, thanks for watching and commenting. The basics of two-stroke tuning is the same but the adjustments on these gas engines are nothing like a nitro. you want to make much much smaller adjustments.
Hahaha well thanks bro I really appreciate the compliment! I try my best to help people out! The maintenance side of rc is a very big deal and the tuning side is everything to having a good day out running. I cannot stand to hear a two stroke not running clean!! I lovem they are my cup of tea!! Have a great day bro! Thanks for checking out the channel Im gonna check yours out!
Thank you jeff for the lesson, cleared up some questions i had about the fat low & idle my Baja runs good but i could tell it was not spot on , this should help me get it dialed in. I've been doing nitro for quite awhile and i have no problem with them , I thought 2 stroke would be easier . I'll get it thanks
Hey your welcome Sam and yes you will get it. It is a bit different than nitro! We turn these carb needles in much much smaller increments than nitro. Nitro is fun I still have a few of them.
Nice that's what I needed to hear I will give it a nother try. Maybe it will be good instead of not bad. Love your video so have a blessed one see ya on the next one. Oh ya I got the first like 👍😁
Ha thanks brother Mike I appreciate you man! I totally want to help people I feel bad when I see people struggle with the tune and wanna throw the gas hobby away! My goal is to contribute to the hobby with good content to help people enjoy it as much as I do!
I have used them before but most all mine have no bearing and work just fine. The bearing does make the throttle shaft a little smoother. But I feel the bearing mod carbs were more of a marketing pitch. I still like them though!
That is just the information i needed, seems like my low was wayyyy to fat after i set the idle as shown in this video -so my idle was close to being all the way in. Thanks man!
Another well informed video brother Jeff quick question I haven't had chance to run my vekta.5 in awhile but I have been letting it idle with a little press of the throttle from time to time but my question is after letting it idle under the carburetor there's some oil but all my hoses are tight so I don't know where it came be coming from thanks in advance brother I appreciate you
Hey brother 2 strokes do not like to idle because there is no where for the excess oil to go and idling causes the crank case to load all up with fuel and then its spits back through the carb and out the air filter. So most likely its coming out of your air filter. Idling does a two stroke more harm than good! Your best to run the piss out of it. Thats how they are happy running and running hard!
@@eastsiderc yo brother Jeff I can't thank you enough these 3 in a half years I've had the pleasure to call you brother you never disappointed me I appreciate you brother......
@@wesleymorgan7894 I would give the 1107 a try. If you would like to try the next size up carb for your engine you will need an adapter plate. You can contact Allen Cestra of TMR Performance on Facebook and see if he will make you one.
@@eastsiderc 🤣thank you bro, I just got a new Baja and followed someone else’s advice on RU-vid… idle screw all the way in, and play with the L scre🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️ the very 1st thing you said not to do… I’ve only done 4- 15min heat cycle and tomorrow was taking her out to start running it in, I will now follow your specs and make it TIGHT N RIGHT 😉 thanks again my bro god bless to you and yours 💯🙏🏽
Hey brother I truly want to thank you for this video. I have a severe hearing loss and have had trouble hearing a proper tune. With your videos I feel that I have a greater understanding of what I’m looking for.
Man bro you are more than welcome! 🙏 I pray that your hearing comes back 100%! I’m very glad to help man. If there’s anything else I can help you with just let me know in the comments, Brother that’s why I do RU-vid to help people mechanically and spiritually.!
@@eastsiderc thanks for the prayers man! It’s genetic but wouldn’t change a thing about it. I’ve been blessed with the ability to help several people in my life with hearing loss. Plus, air pods that you don’t have to remove is quite nice I tell you that much lol. Buddy I’ve been getting it tuned and I noticed that it would not get up into the rpm’s. So, I nervously leaned it to the point where there’s like a powerband? Idk how to explain it man but it’s like a jolt in power all the sudden and brother it screams! My only worry is, am I to lean? I did the plug test, and after a couple quick passes at WOT the porcelain was still pretty white which worried me. I do use the VP canned fuel 94 octane. I also use the oil you recommended, amsoil interceptor. That stuff is great, burns so clean.
@@toxicburrito4685you are probably okay. The plug should be a lightish tan. You can simply add a pinch more fuel to the top end brother! And you’re more than welcome for the prayers! 🙏
Its okay bro I do it all the time lol. Mom too 🤣🤣! Man Im sorry to hear about your brakes maybe its hydro locked. I noticed my buddies moves really hard. I feel like its more of novelty than a working set up. I guess I will find out! Try unscrewing the fluid container and cleaning it out , it maybe like hydro locked.
Been doing gas Rc for over 25 years. I wish it was that easy. It’s not. There is way more to it. But once that sweet spot is found a small adjustment is needed if any at all.
Yes that is a saver buddy.. Great info ...Can you send me a link too the video you did tuning your carbs ... Thanks have a blessed day and hugs too the pup ..
Hey brother super easy to fine just go to my Main channel page click on videos and then click to n popular and its the second video! Hope you have a blessed weekend brother !
