nitro star f4.1 vs. f4.6

[busanate]

whats the difference between the nitro star f4.1 and f4.6

 

[Biddie_fiddler]

F4.6 is a newer motor, though both are discontinued.

The number relates to the engine size (displacement):

f4.1 - 4.1cc
f4.6 - 4.6cc

Typically as the displacement of the motor increases, so does its power output.

To cut a long explanation short, bigger number means "bigger" engine.
Just remember - there's no replacement for displacement!

Are you looking into getting a new motor?

 

[busanate]

no but the manual that came with my savage says 4.1 on some of the pages at the top of the parts list not sure why because I have the 4.6 motor unless the parts can be used on either.?

 

[Biddie_fiddler]

The parts between the savages that have been released are very similar if not the same. So yes, sometimes a part can fit many variants and models.

I haven't been around the savage game as much as the others on this forum. But from what I gather, you have the savage 4.1 model and the motor has been replaced/upgraded.

Did you buy the savage new or was it a 2nd hander??

It was brand new when I bought it.. its completely stock it has had less than a gallon of fuel worth of run time before it was put in storage
