    Motor and Gear Help for Converted Savage X

    I have an old Savage X that a friend gave me. I decided to convert it to electric using a Kershaw kit. I don't know what kv motor to put in something this size and weight. This would be mainly for bashing with the kids who all have hopped up Slashes and Stampedes (VXL and Castle Sidewinder...

    Carb question

    Cool, thanks. I'll get on that soon. This thing just looks like a beast compared to the other cars and trucks the kids have.

    Carb question

    Sorry, I've been busy. I'm keeping the truck but it has to be put on hold for a week two. I cleaned the carb and it pops more now. Will taking the engine apart and cleaning it really help? I thought the OWB was shot so I replaced it and had the same problem. Yes, I put it in thr right way. I...

    LOL, I like my son's Slash, that's why I got one for me. I'll be moving away from them so I can have a car whose parts can't get used when the kids break their cars.

    Carb question

    I probably should have asked this before I did it but here I go. Is it ok to take the glow plug out and spray carb cleaner in the engine through the plug, intake and exhaust to clean it? My experience is with muscle cars and this seems very different.

    That's the worst part, I'd most likely be spending my money. I would get to use it whenever I wanted though. I have a Slash 4X4 that I picked up for me with no motor, esc or remote. After taking parts for the kids cars, I now need rear axle carriers, hex nuts, reciever, front servo and wheels...

    Thanks, I didn't even know there was a filter in the tank. There is an inline one.

    Carb question

    I have a Savage X with the old style f4.6 engine. The engine pops but won't start. I've tried adusting the carb but it either just pops more or less but never starts. It has been sitting for 5 years. I flushed the old fuel out of everything and used fresh fuel. Can the carb be shot? I know very...

    Please Help With Value of This Savage

    Thanks, he is practically a son to me, I'm just trying to get the most for him. He has 3 electric cars and trucks and wants to stick with those. As far as I'm concerned, the motor doesn't work. It may but I can't, in good conscious, sell it as a good motor when I don't know that it is. The only...

    It also has a glow plug igniter, new glow plug, tire wrench and a fuel bottle if any of that matters.

    Please Help With Value of This Savage

    Please help. I am trying to sell a Savage X for my friends 12 year old son. He got it from his older brother and would rather have the money to put into his Traxxas Slash. The car hasn't been run in 5 years. I tried to get it going with the rotostart and it was popping before it stopped...
