    Default Help....

    Hey guys

    Its taken me almost 6 months to get going - first race this weekend but have a prob.

    Popped the engine in this weekend and I have a prob (I think) with the mesh on the gears. Pic attached and just wondered if this is OK or wether I need to bring forward a few mmm to be 100% in line - if so, how do I do it.

    Oh, Losi8 1, Go engine...

    Thanks in advance

    Barney

    Hi Barney hows tricks??

    Cant see your pic dude, can you re-attach it mate and we can have a look, however it sounds like your clutch bell needs shimming out to extend the bell to meet the spur.

    Will be able to tell more when pic is up

    I might be wrong but dont you need the standard Losi clutch to run the Losi clutch bell??

    It looks like you have a standard flywheel on there Barney and without have a mount that enables you to move your engine forward, you will need to get a Losi clutch and bell so it will mesh properly.

    Also, take the blue collar off the clutch bell screw when you move it forward othewise you will go through your fuel tank

    If you're running the Losi quick change mounts you will need to reverse them
