You should lubricate the piston rings and cylinder walls with oil before assembling, also that grease isn’t going to do anything if none of it is under the rocker arms where it contacts the lifters
The grease becomes more liquefied when heated up from the engine and get there on its own and the fuel mixture has lubricant in it which lubes the entire cylinder and therefore also the piston rings
@@BOT_EFE Following this logic neither someone had to lubricate the parts in a real engine. I mean you are not wrong but it doesnt help in any way starting it for the first time or while assembly so this does not really make sense.

I got one of these for a Christmas gift for my father. Honestly, for me the most difficult things assembling It was to handle such tiny pieces! In real life It IS way smaller than It looks
That's a really lovely beginners engine. If this was my hobby, this would be my first engine I think. Love the torque screwdriver. I definitely need one of those 👍
Construction on superior level and sound is truly impressive. It seem to have a lot of headroom in increasing performance by your ideas. Hope you’ll have time to spend on it.
What size were the rod cap screws you had to switch to? Also curious what torque specs you used on some of the assembly. The manual doesn’t appear to designate what should be used.
This runs great, I think you should put this one in. Do you think it's stronger or faster than the 8 cylinder? It's wild how far these engines have come. I uses to have a special prong thing that goes over the glow plug to start it. Used to have to pop the gas line off, blow in with the line by mouth lolol, etc. I really like the starter and it works great too. I also like the glow plug wires. It looks like spark plug wires. Very cool machine. I had the Tiger 21 motor that came in the Schumacher truck. That thing would fly tho. I need to get it up and running again. After watching you, I really want to upgrade and update all of it. Lol I also like the disk brakes, I had the 3 speed gear and it would pop a wheelie in 1st and 2nd. But stopping was very hard and I can't wait to try the newer generation of add-ons. Can't wait to see what you do with this car bud.

I am wondering if the instructions say to add all of that blue goop lubricant to the valve train AFTER you bolt it all down? Me, being a very old mechanic, learned to apply all lubricants before installing metal to metal friction surfaces. All piston rings get a liberal coat of automatic transmission fluid as do cylinder walls (ATF is very high detergent which cleans the cylinder walls and ring grooves in case I missed a nano-particle). All rod, main, cam bearing friction surfaces get either MFG supplied lubricants, or "White Lithium". Either in my considerable experience work perfectly during "First starts". Also, Do you ever use the various miniature power plants you assemble in some form of vehicle? Planes, trains or automobiles. Thanks for the great videos!
The instructions surprisingly don’t say anything about any lubricant at all during assembly. I’m going through the comments trying to find what lubricant he used and the purpose for it since it’s not mentioned in the instructions.
I like watching small engine builds and break in running before using them for a project or making a power tool with it. I would like to see this tiny engine or another one that has either a glow igniter or spark plug paired with a DC motor/generator to see if it could run off the power that's generated.
@@theyeetus1428 these little ones don't always make enough power to run a genny that'd keep their glowplugs hot. At least that's true for the smaller aircraft sort.
@@theyeetus1428 that's half true considering an engine in your vehicle has an alternator which is three phase AC equipped with a voltage regulator and three phase full bridge rectifier plus it's made to run all the electronics on the vehicle. Now for a RC car, boat, plane helicopter or drone where size is everything that's important adding a DC motor to be used as a generator you have to look at will it put out the amps needed for the application which brings up the size of it also would a three phase motor be better suited for it and would it put out the required amps to run it.
@sourand jaded I don't think you understand. These bench top display engines (namely the super cheap ones) often *barely* have the power to overcome their own motor friction, let alone power anything. A better Toyo table motor could, or a decently sized Aero/car engine, but this thing? probably not out of the box. Frankly, even when you CAN, I don't know why you WOULD. Using a LIPO to power the glow plug is still easier, it's goanna outlast your fuel by a fair bit.
I know it’s been awhile since you posted this, but I got this exact engine last year and fully built it. Just one problem when the packaged it and sent it. They gave me the wrong starter belt, the belt number that I have is B86mxl, when I watched your video over and over again until I found the right size belt B88mxl, I went to eBay and found the right one and got them. I wanted to say thanks for the help.
This a great engine kit, just noticed building mine a lot of machining shavings in threaded holes and in glow plug holes snake like spiral shavings ,Q-tip and electric parts cleaner was the answer for the glow plug holes. Also 1 rod bearing cap a little tight ,so Loctite and backed off on torque a bit did the trick. One other thing, the rod top half bearing fell out of the rod there is a tiny oil journal to line back up, a tiny piece of wire will work( they drilled it at an angle so should be lined up). Great video thank you.
Aside from the kit, what else do I need to have this engine running? Looks like I would need some basic tools, a fuel tank, hoses, and a starter at the least.
Johnny Q, I have question for you and I hope you are still responding to comments on this video. I'm using this for an assembly reference. I got an FS L200 Toyan engine and when I began assembly, I ran into a problem. First of all, I want to tell you I have quite a bit of experience building full size race motors, so I'm reasonably aware of proper procedures. Anyway, everything was going just fine untll I tightened the second rod cap and the crank became hard to turn. If I loosen the cap screws and leave the other rod tightened, it spins fine. I've tried everything. Turned the witness marks facing inward, towards the front, even switched piston/rod assemblies to see if it was an oversize journal on the crank. Same deal. With the pistons exchanged, the one that got tight before still got tight again. It seems like the clearance of the rod to the crank journal is too tight and when I tighten up the cap screws it's hard to turn the engine. (Not horribly hard like seizure, but way too tight to survive. When I loosen each cap screw just a bit, the crank turns just fine. As soon and I start to tighten a cap screw on the offending rod, the crank gets difficult to spin. I think I have a faulty rod with a slightly oversize bore. Have you ever run into this before? I noticed in your video you said the rod bolts were too long and you switched to shorter ones. I also tried that and it had no effect. I'm at my wit's end. Any ideas on a fix, or should I try to contact Toyan, or where I bought it, to get a replacement rod/piston assembly. Thanks for your time and any help you can give will be very much appreciated.
Johnny, how about the durability of these miniature engines? You could do some testing on that. I'm always afraid of buying those for a model car and the engine breaking beyond repair after a couple of runs.
I'm going to guess a pretty short life for these as well as the other engines you see uploaded here in the last year or so. None of them are really made for work, the cooling and lube systems are non-existent or very basic. They are shelf pieces.
@@Align700nitro I think about to build a truck based on that engine, but just for "presentation" purposes, like driving few rounds on road and thats it. I think it should be good for that purpose?
06:36 you wont get any more speed by changing from a 3S to a 4S battery pack when there is no motor load. If your speed increased by changing to 4S it simply means the 3S system was not man enough for the job. Its the brushless controller that determines motor speed generally and not the battery pack voltage.

Nitro motors are technically Diesel engines, Glow plugs and all. Diesel is a less refined version of kerosene and burns pretty dirty. They make kits to convert those tiny 2 stroke cox nitro motors to diesel. I’m guessing it raises the compression and has a larger reed valve because it’s a less efficient fuel than nitro.
@@shize9ine Weren't early diesel engines the ones with fuel injectors into the chambers instead of a fuel air mixture from a carbeurator? That was the thing I had in mind
One common problem with almost all tiny engine kits, regardless of who makes them, is that their rotating mass is way too small. Replacing the stock flywheel with one that is 2 to 3x heavier makes a world of difference in low RPM operation and general stability.
Made the flywheel of my big car about 1/4 lighter.... Yea in a traffic jam or in the city.... Drives like sh.... 😅 OK you can drive it but the car drives worse! And this was the heaviest I could find. I wouldn't do it again for a daylie
@Nordlicht 1/4 is still quite a lot, but even though if you did less the effect would more or less be the same. The only application I know for using a lighter flywheel would be drag racing. Running really warm cams will also give off an unstable idle. Like those American big block v8's. Sounds awesome though
@@Nordlicht05 LOL!!! Years ago one of my college buddies was an auto tech and was absolutely convinced that putting a high-stall racing torque converter in his daily driver would make it better. It was the worst vehicle ever to drive in town. 🤣
@@g-nice_pimp Yep. I've built a few engines in my day and for a daily driver, the best cam for power and fuel efficiency is a good heavy towing cam like what they put in larger model pickups and work trucks or RVs. The torque band is almost always righting the range you need for normal driving and the peak torque/efficiency RPM is always right in the band you need for highway driving too. The really amazing part is that when such a cam is used to replace an emissions-compliant one it's common to see 20 to 50+% increases in power and fuel efficiency at the same time.
somewhere in a parallel universe, there isn't a million comments asking to see these engines in cars lol. although putting this in the cheapest crawler would be fun.
Nice work. Would you mind posting a list of additional parts and tools you used and the torque specifications? I'm planning to do a similar project soon. Thanks!!
just keep going up in the price range you can get everything you can imagine, turbos blowers etc, problem is some of those little things cost as much as high performance full size car engines
Great vids man, just picked up this engine for my kid. Can you post a link to your deans t splitter or explain how its built? I have found Y cables but not a 3 way like yours.Also what grease is that on the cam/rockers?
ya looks like it a little bit probably why it’s so cheap bad quality parts especially if they can’t even give the right screws for the rod caps probably won’t even last a tank like that
I think it's pretty cool for selling the scale rc look without going overboard in complexity. I've got other projects to work on first, but eventually i want to scratch build an appropriate scale trophy truck for one of these engines. I might build a 1/4 to 1/3 scale 212cc Predator version first as i probably already have enough scrap metal to build a square tube frame that size.
Hey man, I really like your videos. I'm not having a great time with building my L200 tho. Toyan is unreachable it appears. They appeared to have shipped me the wrong starter belt cause in your video it shows 88mxl mine shows 86, so probably that means two teeth short. The proper size belt doesn't appear to be available. Really don't know who to turn to.
Wonder if it's got any power at all. If it gets hot, too. Didn't see any cooling, other than the fan blades. I'd really like to see it put to work. Love the videos, man. 👍
Probably around 12 years ago I converted my Losi Aftershock to electric from nitro. But the more I watch these videos the more I want to convert it back to nitro but with atleast a 2 cylinder engine (edit) oh man it's on sale for $150 right now I just might have to get this thing

Where are the selfmade air turbines made from tou electric motors??
Hey man, I really like your videos. I'm not having a great time with building my L200 tho. Toyan is unreachable it appears. They appeared to have shipped me the wrong starter belt cause in your video it shows 88mxl mine shows 86, so probably that means two teeth short. The proper size belt doesn't appear to be available. Really don't know who to turn to.
Do kits like these come with detailed assembly instructions?
Sucker sounds healthy! Most don't sound as good. Impressive
Where do you buy the tools and fuel tanks and pumps and various stuff?
I was wondering what lubricant and grease I should use and if its available on amazon please
Lovely little moter the Otto finished building got spark ignition for mine bought the kit
какая красота,не могу оторваться
I want to put one of this in an RC tank but I’m not sure how I’d do the steering (or if it’d fit in the first place)
About how much horsepower can it output?
Does the kit come with wiring instructions?
What lubricates the Rods and crank ?
What powered screwdriver and torque wrench screwdriver do you use?
Which lubrication would be the best for the assembly? I see @JohnnyQ90 is using something red from the syringe.
I have the same question, if you ever found the answer please let me know!
did you use a torque gauge on the rod capes and mains capes?
Wonder if it's got any power at all. If it gets hot, too. Didn't see any cooling, other than the fan blades. I'd really like to see it put to work. Love the videos, man. 👍
It's a nitro engine, the fuel does the heavy lifting as far as cooling goes.
What are the ports on the side? Water cooled? Website says air-cooled
Can I use such engines or larger, but such a design for a drone or a drone fan? Thank you.
How are the internals lubricated
no
For being the cheapest, it looks quite expensive :P Very nice
Where do you get the mini drill?
Probably around 12 years ago I converted my Losi Aftershock to electric from nitro. But the more I watch these videos the more I want to convert it back to nitro but with atleast a 2 cylinder engine (edit) oh man it's on sale for $150 right now I just might have to get this thing
It's a really good price, but note that $150 gets you the bare engine. You need the igniters and spark plugs to get it running.
That little thing sounds even better than todays F1 cars !
what's the torque wrench uou are using?
Can this be used to make a mini generator?
Was für ein Öl/fett benutzt man am besten
What type off oil and grease do u use
this is probably the best sounding mini engine I've ever heard yo. it sounds like a mini formula 1 car lol
What is the brand of electric screwdriver?
Where can I buy these models in Europe?
May i know the brand of tools you are using？
Does it come with the battery and electronics
Imagine toyan actually added a variable valve timing on their model
