Beginners Guide:
Beginners Guide To Nitro RC Cars Please read all this before doing anything with your new nitro car. Also read instruction manual that comes with you new car.
What Will I Need:
1. Fuel - This should be of good quality , the fuel needs to be the correct percentage of fuel for your engine 20 – 25 % Nitro is fine for 12 -21 engines.
2. Good quality batteries
3. Tool Kit – QF265292
Getting Started:
The first step is to put a set of good quality batteries in the transmitter and car.
1. Check steering is correct and when you throttle up the carburettor opens / and when you apply the brakes the carburettor closes and the brakes are applied.
2. Place car on a block of wood or something stable making sure the wheels are off the ground.
3. Put fuel in tank, and make sure the fuel tank lid closes properly.
4. Now turn the engine over with a finger covering the exhaust outlet - you should see fuel go down the fuel pipe to the carburettor.
5. Connect the glow plug heater to the plug and do a few short pulls and your RC Car should start.
6. Once started if your nitro car is new it’s always good practice to let it tick over for 5 minutes without throttling it at all the very first time you start it. Remember this is a new engine and needs to be run in before it will reach its best performance. If it stall during this idling period don’t worry this is normal. Just restart the engine and let it idle again. Whilst it is idling there should be a steady flow of smoke. After this 5 minute period allow the engine to cool for 10 minutes fill the tank up, restart the engine and run the car in short bursts not exceeding more than a quarter throttle.
7. All the time make sure there is a steady flow of smoke. If there is no smoke stop the car and open the main mixture screw 1 quarter turn and dew a few more short bursts. The smoke is important because this cools and lubricates the very delicate engine. When this tank of fuel is gone leave the engine to cool down for 30 minutes. This is a good time to check that all the screws are tight and pressure pipes and fuel pipes are a good fit. After you have done this and the engine is cool re-fill the tank.
8. Start the engine again and do the same again. This time you can take it to half throttle but again only in very short bursts no more than 2 or 3 seconds then let it come to idle speed. Always making sure there is a steady flow of smoke.
9. By this time you will notice that your engine has the potential to be very quick but do not be tempted to run it at high revs at all or medium revs for very long. If you do this too early you run the risk of shattering the piston or breaking the con rod. To preserve and get the best performance out of your engine it MUST be run in properly You should repeat the last process for another tank of fuel each time allowing 30 minutes for the engine to cool.
10. During the early part of running it is important to let the engine cool between runs because it allows the parts to shrink again. These engines expand as they get hot and if not allowed to cool properly the engine does not get run in properly resulting in poor performance and reliability later on.
11. Once the 4th tank of fuel is gone leave it to cool again and check the head bolts in the engine are tight. All the expanding and shrinking can cause them to loosen off slightly. Do these when the engine is cool or as it cools further they wont be as tight as they should be. Now you can fill it up again and get the engine started.
12. By now the engine should be a little easier to start. On the 5th tank you are now ok to run it at full throttle in short bursts. At this point the smoke is more important than ever. If there is no smoke adjust the carburettor until there is. There needs to be a good stream of blue smoke.
13. Do not run at full throttle for more than 5 seconds and allow it to slow down to at least a quarter throttle for the same amount of time. Repeat this for the next tank of fuel too. Again allow it to cool for 30 minutes between and checking all the screws and bolts. After that the important part of running in is done.
14. Now you can begin to enjoy the car but never run your engine at full speed for any length of time or it will get damaged. 5 – 8 seconds is the longest it should ever be run at full speed or you will significantly reduce the engines life. After you have had around 10 tanks of fuel through the engine you can then begin to adjust your carburettor and get a little more performance from your engine.
15. To start with adjust the main valve by a quarter of a turn clock wise to lean it of slightly allowing slightly less fuel in to the engine and more air increasing the speed. Always make sure there is a steady flow of smoke though or the engine will over heat and start cutting out.
Troubleshooting:
What If My Nitro Engine Won’t Start?
1) Remove glow plug & check filament is still intact.
2) Check the glow plug glows by putting the glow plug heater on it (it should glow bright white to orange depending on the temperature rating of the plug).
3) Is the engine flooded? With the glow plug removed, turn the engine over with pull the start [trying to start a flooded engine will probably break the pull start if you leave it to long before checking this]. DO NOT look down the plug hole as if you do this, you could get a face full of fuel!
4) If the engine is not flooded, is fuel reaching the carburettor? To check this remove the feed pipe to the carburettor and empty the fuel from the pipe. Then put the pipe back on and pull a couple of times on the pull start and watch for fuel going up the empty pipe. If not, then remove the pressure pipe from the exhaust and blow down it (not too hard). You should see the fuel reach the carburettor. If there is no movement, check the settings. All manufactures will have specific settings but if you haven’t any try 3 turns from closed on main jet & a 1mm gap when looking down carburettor throat (usually visible if the air filter is removed). If there is a 3rd screw try that flush. Also make sure the carburettor is not being held too far open by the servo. To set the throttle and brake trim to the middle on the remote. Leave the remote in the centre and check the gap on the carburettor is only 1mm. If its bigger adjust the trim on the remote until it is 1mm.
5) If still nothing is happening, remove glow plug & allow a FEW drops of fuel down the hole, then turn engine over a few times before replacing the plug, A new engine should be tight, so don’t get carried away tugging the pull start until it breaks.
6) If the engine locks at top dead centre, you will have to force the engine past centre using a screwdriver onto the flywheel through the hole in the chassis. All engines run anti-clockwise, so with the glow plug out turn over making sure there is fuel getting through. Persevere and eventually it will loosen enough to start.
7) If fuel is not getting to the engine, try a few drops of fuel directly into the carburettor. If the engine starts but stops when those drops are used, check main jet & fuel lines for blockages. Also check tank lid is sealing properly and there are no holes in the pressure pipe. Things To Remember: Do not use your car in wet weather this will damage the servo’s and receivers. Never lean the fuel mixture to the point that there is little or no smoke from the exhaust this will damage the engine. Warranty Although you’re new car will have a warranty this does not cover misuse. Generally any problems that are covered by warranty are spotted upon starting your car for the first time. After this only your radio gear would be covered so long as it is used properly and not in the rain. General wear and tear and misuse of the vehicle are not covered by warranty. Please note that the warranty is void if the product is damaged due to incorrect maintenance or incorrect set up, misuse or crashing. In the unlikely event that you should need to return this vehicle please ensure that the fuel tank is completely empty failure to do so may result in the rejection of the return
