[reaper]

if id have known you were looking for one buddy .....

o well looks like you have one hell of a prts lot and a great car , they realy are bullet proof these things

[lol]

Think I can jump speed bumps without breaking anything on these?

[reaper]

the only thing that may suffer is the spur gear ....get an alloy one integy are good ones

[lol]

Well, i tried starting it. I can't see through the neon green tubing. I gave it a good 30 pumps and flooded the engine

don't have time to clean, so just going to wait till it blows up and get a new engine.

[reaper]

loosen the plug and give it a few pulls to clear the excess fuel

[lol]

took me like 60 pulls to empty the whole cylinder. should i try it now?? its 8AM on a Sunday. People are still sleeping :P

[mycrors4]

Anyways, heres the motor i run.



And the rerouted pipe.



AN OPINION NOW PLEASE.

Silver incorrect angled pipe



Or Correct but black pipe?




Misc Pics





Thx

[Stampedekid]

Looks great, lol. Did my advice work? It looks nice and clean and the pipe looks decent how you have it.

[mycrors4]

why not re-reroute is, and make it where the silver is on the right side and points in the right direction?

[lol]

I started the engine at least 5 times today. The first two times, it would stay running idle, then shut off when i accelerate. The last few it would just stay on then quit on me. Any ideas?

Its probably because the engine isn't tuned and I have no idea how to tune it.

+ I think im developing a callus from the spark ignitor.

[lol]

Well, today I emptied out the cylinder again and started her up. This time she stayed for a bit. I ran a nice circle around the lawn, put the body on. Then it died. Its running too lean, no smoke. Any idea how to tune it? @howlsatmoonlight That is an older model RS4 manual + I have manual, but it makes no sense. =.='
