the piston doesn't look right to me either....
i stripped a thread in the head on my trx2.5 engine, i re tapped the threads and it was fine, useing locktite or jb weld wont work..
ahh, maybe you dont get them in the us, maybe i should of explained it.
i guess they are a bit like sts, the currently make a .28 3 port, .21 7port and .21 5 port (truggy engine), they are distributed by the same people who distribute hong nor/jammin over here in the uk.
i chose this...
well here she is, with new engine installed, ran in, and tuned.
only hop ups are the Go.28 engine and new era roll bar.
can safely say this engine is MUCH MUCH better than the mach427 i had in there
how does the 2.5 have a 'small cooling head'? because it is .15, look at other .15's, the heads on them are small.
my trx2.5 runs at 240 255 all day, i have sealed up the backplate and carb for the sake of it and it did reduce my temps quite a bit. i have found how ever, the 2.5 is quite...
p2 rockers all round
50wt oil all round
green front tan rear springs
pushrods in middle all round
4 clips to the rear for the caster, arms forward
ride height drive shafts level front and back
tnt trx 2.5r
ms filter
moved gearbox forward a few mm
tyres bowties on 40's rims
servos...
my 2.5 is great so far in my revo, has some amazing power for a .15! I'm having problems with wheelies on mine!(still running the stock pipe and gearing)
it is pretty reliable too and can be a bit touchy when it comes to tuning but if you just take it slow and turn in very small increments its...
oh dang, so not as good as my bowties on yours then:thefinger
done foc on my revo now, so i had to lessen the shock oil thickness as it was wheelieing too much:wtf:
they have huge sidewalls on the dirt bonz tho dont they?
yes they are a soft compound, this might just mean the foams you get with them (if you get any) will be soft.
you could just put super firm foams in them, thats whats in those bowties you tried, and they have lasted ages.
hi
i have tried doing the MS filter mod by adding a 1/8th MS filter to the stock housing by glueing it.
i have used impact adhesive and roughed the filter and neck up to get s secure fit and seal, and then let them cure.
i have since added a form of super glue to the outside of where...
@digger, the revo stripped a spur at the end of the day. and the sav (for once) didnt break anything.
#cheers to everone else for the thumbs up on the pics, they were take off my cell phone!
the revo will be having a new shell soon, and the sav had a brand new (recived it that morning)...

right, i fully understand you now (after that severe brain lapse).
hope you dont mind but I've linked this thread to help some other guys out on another forum.
its running bang on, temps around 230 240.
wheelies on,low end, nice amount of smoke on topend.
its definatly somthing to do...
ok cheers bud.
the strange thing was that the shift kept getting later, then was fine for 2 high speed runs, then whent late etc etc..
so i truned it off for about an hour, started it back up for a run, then it was fine, for nearly a tank, then it just packed in alltogether.
reckon you...
right cheers for being patient mate.
is it just a matter of filing down the red bit a bit? or file down the 'shoe' so its thinner?
and then just re install?
if so that doesn't seem hard.
also, is it just getting stuck because the show has kinda 'spread' thus like you have siaid it...
thanks for replying quick, but, i dont quite understand what i need to do.
you say bevel somthing?
can you explain whats happening?
sorry I'm a bit confused, i know how the 2 speed shifter works, but i dunno what i need to do.
sorry, bit of a dumb moment:opps:
hi
took out my revo today for a few tanks.
2 speed was working as per usual.
but, towards the end of the first tank, half the time, it wouldnt change.
on the second tank it refused to change at all!!
I'm really confused and a bit p***** off. can anyone shed some light on this...
