This hobby tends to be quite seasonal, leaving us with engines that are sat for long periods of time. In this video I show you the steps I take to start a Nitro engine easily, even if it's been left for a while. I'm using a Hobao Hyper 7 that I recently bought second hand from eBay - that hasn't been started for 5 years!

Where abouts in town are you off to at the weekend ? Down afcb again? , would love if you could have a look at my jato sometime! Bloody thing won’t behave itself 🤦🏽‍♂️

@@ng12129 Hi there, sorry I only just saw this message! I was at AFCB yesterday breaking in a nitro engine... I'll be there one day next week!

@ng12129 4 года назад

TheRCBiker managed to get the jato running just need to break it in again as it’s had a new piston , sleeve and con rod. Next one to get going is the hpi trophy trugggggggy ! We have been out driving around on the field in musclif today . Be good to get out for a bash locally !

Thank you :)

@Gavs_rc_hobbies 4 года назад

Just a little warning when blowing into the pressure line, make sure you pinch the tube with your fingers after you blow into it as there is a possibility of 'blow back' and fuel could come back through pressure tube and into your mouth or face (It happened to me once).

@TheRCBiker 4 года назад

Never happened to me (yet) but sounds nasty! Something to be aware of :)

Thank you for this video sooooo much. I've been trying for 2 days to get my old nitro rustler back running after putting almost $200 in upgrades and was getting pretty discouraged until I found your video. Now she's at least running and will be back racing once I get it tuned! 🥴❤️❤️

Hey why does my car rev high and when I rev it cutts out and after 10 pulls of pull start it snapped brand new pull start

@TheRCBiker 4 года назад

Hi there, It could be revving high because of the carb gap or because of tuning (possibly both). Cutting out could be for the same reasons, or even a dodgy glow plug. This would need a bit of fault finding, if you send me a video of the issue to my facebook page (facebook.com/thercbiker) then I'll be happy to help

@RonanKearney1 4 года назад

I sleep easier at night knowing my nitros have no fuel and after run oil in the engine haha. I suppose lots of people don't look after their things but in this hobby if you look after the engine you'll always get a good price if you're selling a car on. . . so why not look after them. Good man

@TheRCBiker 4 года назад

You're welcome I am guilty of not using AR oil on some of mine when I packed it in 3 years ago. Managed to get away with it though, probably because they were kept in the loft (warm!) so less chance of corrosion etc .

Where can I buy rims and tires.. Those look like the same size as my XTM Buggy.. Most nitro buggies don't have the big hex nut on the rims like mine and this buggy has.. I haven't started mine in 6 years.. Was running great the last time I ran it.. I also have a Redcat Buggy and a Traxxas Truck..

@redblue40rc33 2 года назад

Anywhere that sells a 17mm hex wheel...mostly 1/8 buggy wheels are 17mm hex

@arixxblack 4 года назад

Do you have an engine that has low compression? Try making a pinching tutorial so you can compress it normally again, it looks like it will be very useful ...

@TheRCBiker 4 года назад

It's a nice idea but I don't currently have a low compression engine!

@cetGT3 4 года назад

Hi...thanks for awesome vids...can you make a video on how to improve wobbly wheels tips and tricks on road gp cars to improve wheel stability and alignment...i have found no matter what i do even with brand new bearings my wheels are still wobbly to some degree.

@TheRCBiker 4 года назад

Good suggestion! It's normal to have a bit of play on the wheel hubs on these cars :) But yes, good idea for video. I'll add it to the long list!

@colinpyke4199 4 года назад

How can you tell if an engine has or has not been broken in or would you recommend doing a break-in procedure on a second hand engine as a precaution? I have a sledgehammer MGT

@TheRCBiker 4 года назад

Breaking in a used engine wouldn't be of any benefit because by that time the damage will be done It's difficult to tell if an engine has been broken in and some people report that they don't bother with break ins yet the engines run fine. But usually an engine that didn't have a good start in life will have low compression and be difficult to start & tune

@aaroncarrot5166 3 года назад

I just got a old nitro, hopefully this helps it get running! Your explanation helps me understand the process, thanks!

@Imperial_Wing 4 года назад

Question :why nitro rc cars have a tube going from the tank to the tuned pipe while gasoline ones don’t?

@TheRCBiker 4 года назад

Good question! Petrol 2 strokes have a "diaphram" (not sure of spelling?) in the carb which pulls fuel through , like a fuel pump. Therefore the tank doesn't need pressuring like a nitro, actually the opposite - petrol fuel tanks have a breather hole instead!

@jasonmoody9673 4 года назад

hi m8 on now ok thanks

@tonycruz7596 4 года назад

Hello good friend 😁I really enjoy your videos and all the help you have given me. I have another question for you, I have a JL .28 Ofna motor. My problem with this motor is keeping it running, it'll start and stay at idle but as soon as I give it a little bit of throttle it shuts off. Any ideas what's going on and how to keep it running??? The motor has lots of compression, 1mm gaping, ideal screw is flush, high-end screw is 3 trying out. And a new glow plug. Help

@gwo7610 4 года назад

If it bogs out your low end is too lean, if it's spluttering your too rich.

@TheRCBiker 4 года назад

Return tuning to factory default and then work from there ;) Google usually has the factory default settings if you haven't got your manual!

@tomato1826 4 года назад

Do u have any info on hpi? I have a couple savage x and need parts badly

@TheRCBiker 4 года назад

All I would do is look the manual up and look online for parts! :)

@willfrance7626 4 года назад

I’ve recently got given 2 hpi mt2s and the carb is seized stuck have you got any ideas on how to loosen it up cheers

@TheRCBiker 4 года назад

Remove the carb and try soaking the whole thing in some WD40 :)

@willfrance7626 4 года назад

TheRCBiker ok will do

@adamspitfire 4 года назад

Helpful tip: the area above the piston is called the combustion chamber, the carberator is where the air and fuel go in

@TheRCBiker 4 года назад

Yes I know that ;) I did correct myself just after!

@byrnesy919 4 года назад

what a coincidence, i own a hyper 7 and its been sitting for like 6-8 years. mgt get it going again

@TheRCBiker 4 года назад

Get it going, it's the right time of year for it! :)

@byrnesy919 4 года назад

TheRCBiker quick question man, the main issue why it got put in storage was because i had an issue with the controls transmitter, is possible to swap it for a new 2.4ghz transmitter without swapping the current stock receiver ? Or do i need a new receiver ?

@TheRCBiker 4 года назад

Is the receiver it's got at the moment 2.4ghz? If so you can buy a replacement transmitter the same and then bind it to the existing receiver. If the receiver is an AM or FM one then you'd need to buy a new receiver too. To be honest it's often barely any more expensive to buy a Transmitter/ Receiver Kit rather than just the Transmitter on its own anyway

Hey how’s it going! So i need some help. Im trying to buy a new glow plug but im confused on n4 and n3 and which one is for mine. I took mine out and its a blank so it doesn’t say any numbers. I took it out with a 6mm so idk if that will be any help. thanks!

@1slowe60_9 4 года назад

8mm sorry

@TheRCBiker 4 года назад

Hi there, what fuel are you using? Medium plug for 16% or 20%, Colder plug for 25% and above :)

@1slowe60_9 4 года назад

TheRCBiker im using 20% :) i just noticed the tips looked a bit different. It doesn’t matter then??

@TheRCBiker 4 года назад

Depending on the engine it may need a Turbo Plug. Turbo plugs are tapered at the ends.

@1slowe60_9 4 года назад

TheRCBiker i bought one on amazon lets see how it goes lol thanks for the help I appreciate it a lot!
