    is it just me or is the .21 a PITA? brushless possible?

    Well Basicly i'll get it going, and it goes great. Tons of power, crisp throttle responce, has plenty of smoke at top end. But then it just starts to loose power, bogs down like its either too rich or too lean. It almost seem like it's too lean, like there ain't enough fuel, but it smokes...

    I have tried to retune it half tank when it starts to run crappy, but it just won't tune and when it stalls it will not restart.

    is it just me or is the .21 a PITA? brushless possible?

    I can get it to start but sruggle with it, and once it's started I can get it to tune fairly well where it'll run great for a short while (maybe 10 minutes if I'm lucky) then it starts to run poorly and I can't get it to tune, and when it stalls it doesn't want to start again. So is it just me...

    Help with tigerdrive install please

    Well thanks for the reply. I managed to figure it after searchin google for an hour or more. You have to mount it pointing to the right, just under the manifold. You need to drill a hole in the TVP plate and remove a lil plastic from the piece above the diff the larger screw mounts into. Wroks...

    fuel prob to engine

    Well since I had a roll over that caused the shock bolt to puncture the tank, I ordered up a new tank, a primmerless one. Also picked up a new fuel filter at the same time. I checked the current filter and the Oring inside (replacable element style) was kinda fudged up. So hopefully these...

    Share your crash damage pics!

    That was my first thought when I had seen what happened. I ordered up a new tank, a primmerless one. Also picked up a new fuel filter.

    This ever happen to anyone else? The rear shock tower musta flexed forward enough that the bolt put a hole in the rear side of the tank. It's so nice it almost looks drilled :hardlaugh:

    educate me on starters

    Thanks for the info guys! I just ordered up a tiger drive. In the description it states it includes the 1way bearing, and that is sweet cause the one in the pull start just went out on me.

    educate me on starters

    Thanks guys. I didn't think the rotostart shaft would work in the drill because it looks round in the pics I seen. Dave, i have a craftsman 19.2 cordless with both reverse and clutch. Thanks for the tip. And other than tower does anyone know a good source for those bearings? tower was the...

    educate me on starters

    I have a .21 with a pull start. My arm is tired Lol plus the 1 way took a crap so I figured while it's apart for that, I'd like to put on an electric type start. I don't want the stock roto start though. Is there a setup out there that has the bit you can chuck up in a drill that will work on a...
