Zenoah G320 Clutch Work And Cast To Billet Housing Change!

[@Notoriious906]

To me, you are the cleanest wrencher. I hope i said it right. The way you work on things you make it look so easy. Keep it up we need more of these wrenching videos

[@eastsiderc]

Aziz I really appreciate that! This is kinda what Im known for my wrenching! Its my favorite part of this hobby , the building and the wrenching on my cars! I love to run them too when I can and tuning is my second favorite thing! Its just a super awesome hobby! I used to ride 2 and 4 stroke dirt bikes for the better part of my life! Ive slowed down on them and this I can do right in my home and not ever get hurt! Thank you again Ill be sure to keep this content up!

[@tonymanna9160]

Brother, like a true mechanic you know your engines. Good stuff as always.

[@eastsiderc]

Thanks brother Tony I knew you would appreciate the close ups and clarity! I lost a subscriber from it 😆

[@victic2277]

Couldn't put the spring on. I use the plier to try to twist the spring on, and it damage the clutch shoes. You made it look easy in the video.

[@eastsiderc]

It is very easy bro because Ive done it so much but patience is key, now I will say Ive gotten clutch spring that are cut in a way that it makes them hard to go on there I may even have to dremel the end to grind off a burr . Sorry to hear you messed up the shoes bro!

[@victic2277]

@eastsiderc i put on another clutch from a Zenoah engine. I had to change one out last week for a rovan clutch because it it rubbed against the clutch bell as I tighten it on a Vekta.

Great video son. Boy you got the coolest tools for everything 😀.

[@eastsiderc]

Thanks mom! You know me and tools and especially billet! 😆

[@me8u73]

When I fit a clutch I also like to check the clutch bolts arent binding the shoes. I grab a large flat head screw driver and twist between the clutch shoes where they clip into each other. This is to make sure the shoes are free and return 😎💪👌

[@eastsiderc]

I talked about this in the video. Thanks for watching bro that’s what I was talking about when I was saying to clearance the bolts I showed how they spun nice and free inside the shoes that ensures that the shoes swing out nicely and smoothly, zen always does a good job on the bolts to make sure the spin free in the shoes for no bindng.

[@me8u73]

@EastSide RC yeah I seen you talk about the bolts being free but I still double check 😎 Keep up the good work!!!

[@blacksheeprc8113]

Looking beautiful man I can't wait to get me a gasser I think y'all got me hooked

[@eastsiderc]

Thanks brother! Electric ⚡️ is definitely cool but I just love the 2stroke noise and the technical side of it! It helps keep the mind sharp!

[@blacksheeprc8113]

@@eastsiderc oh I agree hundred percent man I can't wait to get back into it I've never had a gas I've had some nitros just never gas when I can't wait I'll probably be asking you some questions lol

[@316RC]

Get one you wont regret it 😁

[@bluegroovemodelsports9650]

I like the pullstart handle. That engine will be a great combo for that buggy.

[@eastsiderc]

Thanks Robert I think so too! And its a nice handle for sure! Im glad I had it in hand!

[@316RC]

We need more how to content like this. 👍 Thanks Jeff for sharing your knowledge 🧠 I use a micro torque wrench for my clutch stuff set at 85 inch lbs. Not sure where I got that setting from 😂

[@eastsiderc]

Thanks brother Allen! I use the torque wrench for some things but I seem to get things too tight with it. I like to go by the feel of my arm strength . It hasn’t failed me yet! They say 65 inch pounds for the fly wheel but I have seen others break them too many times at that setting so I just snugem up like a spark plug and havent had a single issue yet! Appreciate you checking it out! Its good too see you making videos too! I enjoy your vids!

[@316RC]

@@eastsiderc I might be going a bit too tight. 85 seems pretty tight to me. What you doing on carb bolts? I was doing 65 on mine then I stripped out threads on a Bartolone reed 😏

[@eastsiderc]

I do the same with carb bolts just good snug by hand to close the lock washer. Then maybe one more 1/4 turn and stop. I have snapped a intake block with the torque wrench only once and never used it again for that. A good maintenance practice I do before each run is try n move the carb back n forth to make sure its still tight n right! Ive never ever had a carb come loose. 🤝🇺🇸🙏

[@StoneFPV-]

Great video! I need to get one of those wrench/pullers it looked like it worked well.

[@eastsiderc]

Hey brother I highly recommend it! Its the nicest puller multi tool and its worth its weight in BILLET!

@@eastsiderc I know you said it in the video but where did you get it from?

Ddm bro its like 45 bucks DR110 is the part number

@@eastsiderc I tried that code, it says it expired. I will call em up and ask Dan. Thanks for the reply! Me being a total detail nerd I would have ground off that unused mounting boss, seeing how the D5 doesn't utilize it. I am also curious to how well the ring/pinions are shimmed in this d5 as assembled.

[@eastsiderc]

@@thatoneguy2756 Oh dont worry Ill be getting to that when all my billet parts for the D5 come in! Ill be doing a full build on it. I really need to get my vids in playlists like asap! I got a few builds coming up brother! And yes ask Dan sorry I couldn’t help with the code .

[@michaelsoucia4983]

First coment cut off short. What mortar wood you get Rovan 36cc or zenoah 36cc for my Rovan 5B 29cc I am going to get a 4×4 in couple month's not shur what but some thing good. Thanks have a wonderful week to you and everyone else.

[@eastsiderc]

If you get a Rovan 36 get the single ring, it makes more power. Zen makes up to a 32 I prefer that one. It is also sold at fearless RC. It’s just a bit more money than 120 bucks I believe. And thank you brother. I hope you have a super blessed week to.

[@hottrodd1090]

hey thanks for all the great videos. I'm learning a lot. But can you tell me how to figure out what carb that came with my losi dbxl 2.0 so i can adjust the carb. I'm a complete noob to gas but i have plenty of electrics. i added the losi tuned pipe to mine and want to make sure my carb adjustments are close so i'm not running to lean.

[@eastsiderc]

Sure man I can help the carb will have a number on it like 990 or 1107 or 668 something like that then you can come back n ask me what the base settings are or look them on DDMs website

[@eastsiderc]

If you simply tell me what engine is in it I will tell you carb it has on it. That car has either a Chung yang 29 in it or a Zen 32 or maybe even a Zen G290 .

[@hottrodd1090]

@EastSide RC it has the zenoah 32cc and when I took carb off and found the part number it's an 1107 carb.

[@hottrodd1090]

@EastSide RC now it's having an issue. I was running it yesterday and it was running good and then just stopped running. Gas was low so I added a little and it would start for a second then stop. I set carb to 1 1/2 turns low and 2 turns high still won't start. Checked plug and it's black so I bought a new plug and won't even fire at all now. Checked and it does have spark but won't even act like it wants to start. I'm at a loss here.

[@sammiller8497]

Hi Jeff when you change your clutch shoes should you use thread loc on the clutch bolts ? Thanks

[@eastsiderc]

Thats fine I use a little bit on mine sometimes and sometimes I dont. Never had a clutch fall off!

Tight n right

[@T-HobbiesG45]

I just bought a 1/5 Baja it moves forward when I start it

[@eastsiderc]

Something is up with the clutch it’s engaged or engaging way to fast. Could be a broke spring or a shoe loose! You’re going to have to take it apart and inspect it
