Disasembling VX 18 nitro engine (atomic warhead) in HD

Dismantling VX 18 engine coming from a Atomic Warhead 4x4 nitro buggy

[@2112inuyasha]

I put this engine on my ofna ultra mbx comp. and it runs it pretty well. of course i did lightly modified it by taking the head shim out and putting a hpi .25 cooling head on it. also running 10% nitro, 18% oil.

[@M3drivr87]

got it done thanks!

[@amando96]

any ideas on removing the screws under the pull start, if they are really weak, and most likely get rounded?

[@Alvyn27]

Thanks man

[@Ybw200owns]

what is the part number for the lower engine mount screws?

[@Buna97]

do you know the 4 screws that screw the heat sink to the engine? Well one of the holes that the screws scre into on top of the engine has its threads stripped. This means I loose a lot of ompression and smoke is coming out of the gap between the cooling head and heat sink. I am planning on getting a whole new engine. Or is there another way to fix this?

[@YOYOMAN786]

which way does the hole in the piston goes

[@DJHeroMasta]

There pull starters are way to big to fit onto my RS4 any advice or tips.

[@xXZninjaXx]

what pecent fuel do you run for this engine i just got one

[@amando96]

is ir hard to put it back together?

[@TheOcm95]

how did you get loose the part where the air filter sits?? working on a project with an old buggy and cant seem to remove the pin that holds it.

[@piochu25]

I can't remember to be honest it was that long ago. Is there any screwdriver fitting on it? Maybe it's just pushed in?

[@Excel943]

Why, i run mine 30% and it been running strong for 2 years. Its been 6 gallons since

[@FargothPL]

Hi. Do you remember dimensions of ball bearings? My engine has a leakage at the bearing and I want to order better bearings but I broke my caliper :/

[@rc_teo_nade_216]

Get your bearing and go to skf

[@carespa]

i have an o.s dtx18, i wanna know if the piston hole goes to the same side (facing carburator) if i change de side the hole will be to the exhaust side thanks

[@eriff]

hello do you made this , will work, br!

[@inoahmann7542]

Maby you mentioned this in your video and I missed it but there what looks like an exhaust scavenging port that doesn't actually go anywhere. What is the purpose of this port?

[@piochu25]

Do you mean long flat port at 2:16?

[@inoahmann7542]

@@piochu25 no, it's a port on the sleve directly opposite the exhaust. It doesn't have a corresponding channel cut in the block. It is visible for a split second at 6:02:

[@piochu25]

@@inoahmann7542 it's a fuel intake to The cylinder, it works like on two stroke engine

[@Buna97]

I could do that, but where do you live, I live in Yorshire in the U.K.

[@piochu25]

16%

[@piochu25]

@YOYOMAN786 hole facing carburator

[@teonthevwwhisperer7316]

Mine is going strong just screwed my cylinder head up literally I crossthreaded the glow plug

[@piochu25]

drill the bolts heads off , and unscrew with pliers

[@TwoAces01]

Is it still a good engine?

[@PauloIrineudeSouza]

Yes!

[@Excel943]

Send me the engine i can use it for spare parts?!

[@piochu25]

no, it's very easy :)

[@Excel943]

Send it to ill pm you

[@madhuvishahan8527]

the video image is too poor, you need to fix it more

[@geraradoification]

amigos, en este video no es la forma correcta de desarmar un motor, las llaves no son adecuadas, los tornillos tienen que ser en orden por el balance que produce la precion , el piston no se extrae de la manera que lo realiza. gracias por querer mostrarnos su tecnica pero no es asi. viva el rc

[@MrPupipi]

boring zzzzzz
