    👍What about the crank shaft, can you rebuild an egine with New piston, sleeve, conrod keeping the old crankshaft ?

    • @AdamDrake

      Yes, you do need to check the crankshaft for wear as well, but with the DLC coating from OS the crankshafts usually last a very longtime.

    I have a Novarossi engine. How often would you change front and rear bearings?

    • @AdamDrake
      @AdamDrake  3 роки тому +1

      I don't change the front bearing unless it starts leaking.

    Hello mr Adam
    Im getting a used o.s b2101 and i was wondering if i could swap a new piston/sleeve/rod set from the adam drake edition engine. Is the set from your ad1 or ad2 engine compatible or do i have to get the ad1 or ad2 crankshaft to make it compatible? And if the piston/sleeve/rod set is compatible will it have better performance from the stock b2101 piston/sleeve/rod set or is it all in the crank?
    Thanks In advance
    Nik

      The AD p/s/r set is different, but it could be used in the B2102. We offer new broken-in p/s/r sets for pretty much all OS engines if needed. www.thedrakeracing.com

    I have an OS .21VG, been running it for about 8 years. The other day, I ran it too lean. The engine got really fast while driving, and then I heard a bang and it just stopped. Now it's totally seized. Is there any way to repair it?

    I have a few Novarossi engines and i know you used to run them, Adam. The manual suggests to change the rod every 20 liters on offroad engines, is that a good guidance to follow in your opinion?

    • @AdamDrake

      The Nova rods are super durable and usually last the life of the engine in my experience with them.

    Good stuff Sir, question were can I find a exhaust cooler? I seen it on one of your Novirissi motor builds.

      Ebay. Although many will argue their only benefit is aesthetic.

    Damn 10 to 12 gallons on O.S engines that impressive can’t go wrong with O.S Engines made in Japan easy to start and run tune. Its how Nitros are supposed to be.

      Agree, O.S. Speed engines are incredible. www.thedrakeracing.com

    Before watching this video I would have swore up and down that I created my after run oil (wd+marvel) now I'm starting to think that I may have gotten the idea after reading something or watching a video..
    Oh well, the Todd turbo is still mine.
