  1. OK Guys! I knew Seafoam couldn't do everything OK-- now that I have your guy''ez Attention we can add to this thread on what your next build is and what you might have in the hanger as well.
  2. Flyin, Finishing up a GP GeeBee this year FINELY *LOL* Had even sold my brand new OS 120 FS with pump a couple years ago I had in it. So this last month I am putting in a new TT 130 FS gunna try that, and all new digital servos , did the Robart Strut Mod So the landing gear will push in and out (pretty cool), added carbon fiber pushrods to it. I also am building up a world modles 25 size cub with a OS 30 size engine in it. Cub 2 (Goldberg) (40 Size) has a OS 70 FS in it flys great, building up floats for it this winter. Sig Kougar with a OS 45 in it. flys like a bat out of hell. And just found a NIB forgot I had it *lol* Goldberg 40 Size that I can build as well this winter. Now my other Question is can I break these new engines in even tho I will not be flying them much this winter,, so there ready for next spring. and use some type of after run in them to hold them over? what would you do? or would you just wait? Thanks! Jeff
  3. Well it is about $20.00 per gal these days. I have 3/4 of a gal left from a few years ago. It just got me thinking about Seafoam *LOL* why wouldn't it work? But Like you say.. we that fly these things have lotsa bucks into them.
  4. Been flying RC Planes for sometime now, Had a break in it for the last 3 years. But as Winter is coming on I am back into it as so I do not go CRAZY for the next 4 or 5 months being stuck inside here in Iowa during the winter. bike is all put away and the modeling begins. My Question is ALL this talk about Sea Foam and I use it faithfully and it's wonderful stuff, why would it not work in my older nitro fuel that has been sitting for a couple years? maybe put an once or so in the gal jug? The older fuel has been indoors all this time. for that do not know our airplane fuel has nitro/methane and a percentage of oil in it. and are used in 2 stroke and Four Stroke model engines. Thanks for your in-put Jeff
  5. Think I paid $18.00 at the dealer for a new one about 5 years ago.
  6. Mike (Eusa1) is real good at fixing them , he does have photos on how to do it as well, hope he see's this thread. I will PM him for you. Jeff

  8. Mine looked like that as well, get real hot water in a pan and let them soak for 10 mins then pull them out. they normally will come back to shape. also look for pin holes. my last check I had two large pin holes in mine. I was thinking that the diaphragms ran me about 30 each ? Jeff

    need help

    The wire has to be at least 3 inches long and be able to push it through the curve I hope his condition is not as bad as mine was. I myself could not push any type of wire through the vent. my last resort was the drilling idea. and it worked. went crazy for over two weeks trying to un-plug it with everything on earth. as I did not want to take a chance on breaking the vent tube while bending it. but come to find out it bent up real nice and bent right back with no problem. just all the time being very careful and praying. bike would only run about 8 miles or so until I removed the cap, then tried placing it back on. it would run another 8 miles. so to get home I just un-locked the cap and left it on the hole loose and road home.
  21. Great, keep us posted

    I used compressed air from my garage compressor and a hose with a hose clamp on the vent and it would blow off the vent tube, that hole is extremely small. even piano wire would not get in there and go through. the curve is the problem. took all of 2 secs after I had the tube straight up and down to clear it.
