    More newbie questions...

    My experience with the .21 bb engine is that it took about a gallon for the temps to drop below 300. It always ran hot. I thought i ruined the engine at the time. Then after a gallon temps went way down to 200-220. I thought the engine might be dead but it hasnt died yet. I got 4 1/2 gallons...

    $2500 Savage on Ebay

    Way to expensive for my taste. For that Much you could get about 4 Savage SS and hopups to make them all bullet proof. Steve

    Engine Problems

    Ya your right I'm just mad cause I did nothing wrong and stayed close to factory settings so it is still rich and it still ran hot no matter what I did. Well i guess I might have to try one of those Picco .26 or Wasp .26 and trade my engine in for a new one for a 100 bucks. Thanks for the...

    Engine Problems

    Well at least I know what the problem is but I have never run this engine lean and it was fine for the first 10 tanks then all down hill. Think if I sent it back to HPI they will fix it for me? The weird thing was that it was hot during break in too. When I wa idling the tank it was at...

    Engine Problems

    Well I have put about 2.5 gallons through the stock .21bb on my Savage. For the first 10 tanks it ran fine without any stalls and I completed the tanks.

    Low Speed and Midrange Needle Help

    Well I read somewhere that they can lock together, when you move one (for instance the LS needle it moves the MR) I found an article on how to fix it. So I think the Savage will run great now. Steve

    I've been trying to do that, but when ever I try and move the LS it is locked with the Mid-Range. I'll keep trying to look around. Steve

    Savage Help?

    Thankyou everyone for the fast replies. I'm going to make these adjustments very soon and see if it she will work for me. Also when you have it in stock settings should it go into 2nd gear? Steve Also when you mean "back out" does that mean close them or open them? Thanks a Bundle once...
