Had some time this Sunday morning, before the Patriots beat whomever they are playing this afternoon, to fire up the reluctant Stik RCGF 10cc. She ran okay before I changed the piston ring and rebuilt the motor and the carb to clean everything out. I have managed to get her to run a little here and there, but for the past several tries I cannot get her to even burp.
I fueled her, and some gas blew out the vent onto the ground, but more was added to the pool as I ran the electric starter again and again, and it dripped from the muffler. I took off the plug, it looks good, and dried her out, tried again, no joy. I have the needles set 1-1//2 turns now, have had them as high as 3-4. I know she has spark, I know she has fuel, I know she has compression, I don't know why she won't run. She has always been the cantankerous one, my other RCGFs run fine.
Time to send her to the team At RCGF-USA and have them figure it out. Joe, she will be coming your way next week...
