You and fire always make my day lol

Right on Haha

[@fraserdavidson2366]

Another excellent rebuild. Thanks for the video buddy. I have to say the fire always adds that little bit of excitement and drama to your videos. Kind of makes my day 😉

[@thebug4046]

Haha thanks for the kind words! Fire is fun to play with My old KZbin channel and forged line got shut down because the amount of dangerous stupid things I used to do but if you scroll down a little bit through my channel I do have a video of blowing up a can of starter fluid with an M80 Haha

I have ke25 carb. Was hoping I can find some o rings to replace the low and high needles. Can t find oem parts.

[@thebug4046]

Bummer see if you can find a hole carburetor

[@nitrogas5719]

Are rebuild kits expensive for every engine brand because novarossi wants 90 dollars for a piston sleeve and rod, and that’s not even with bearings yet so that’s like the price of a new engine. Are there engines that are cheap to rebuild?

[@thebug4046]

Depending on the engine if you can get the parts cheap enough then sometimes yes sometimes no you can always send your piston and sleeve for a pinch which will make your engine like new again I'm only into this engine for $30 in parts

[@robertlarson5387]

Do you know if KE25 and the KE25SP engines are interchangeable? Thank!

[@thebug4046]

I'm sure most stuff is im not really sure what the difference is sorry

[@nitrogas5719]

Hey man, have you ever had a problem where your engine runs too cool? My engine has this huge cooling head and even when I tuned it it reaches a max of 190 in 70 degree weather, if I lean the top more it will cut out, so maybe I should try to lean the bottom more.

[@thebug4046]

It's really hard to say without seeing it run running to cool of a plug can make for tuning problems as well

[@rcsendandblast1579]

Does this engine fit normal clutch kits. Like a savage 4.6 clutch. Will it fit this crank

[@thebug4046]

Id imagine it would being a big block

[@angelromero2689]

Do you know any substitutions for one way bearing or pull starts that will fit on this from other engines ?

[@thebug4046]

Not so far.. kyosho engines suck ass nothing available and completely different from everything else

[@angelromero2689]

@@thebug4046 I just got a Neo 3.0 and not in good shape. I found the pin and spring sitting at the bottom not in place. The buggy is a basket case. Thanks for the response brother.

[@pcrashford5367]

Is the ke21sp constructed the same way, like is the back plate assembly the same as this?

[@pcrashford5367]

Also do i have to heat up the cylinder before reassembling?

[@thebug4046]

Yup

[@pcrashford5367]
