Sport .20 setup issues

Does your header run inside of the pipe? If it does it will cause you problems.

Not more than a 1/2" or so. For sure not to the point where the pipe expands.

Jarcaines,

So how did the Sport 20 work for you at the
Namba Nationals?

 

[Jerry Dunlap]

I think JR went 0 for 4 in starting heats at the NAMBA. He was running during the mill in round 4 and decided to slow down a little. Turns out it was a "too much" and slow went to stop.
We have a Pumpkin Scramble club race on Oct. 24 and maybe the Great Pumpkin will provide some finishes for JR in Sport 20.

All those tanks lot of places to have air leaks on my ML SPORT20 I run two tanks had same problem air leal on one tank when you put flow meter on check for air leak

how did you do at the nats? I was there, but didn't get to watch...lol

 

[Jarcaines]

I did make one start. I think I was just hella rich. I leaned it out every heat, by the third heat it ran off the pipe and ran out of fuel on lap 3. In the 4th heat it was running at speed, but as Jerry said above, I backed off and it died. I think I went too lean at that point.

Jr,

Just curious what propeller did you have on the boat?

Thanks,

Mark Sholund

Should try a 1515-17*-45% on it now.

 

[Samuel Hagan JR]

Mark are you still doing props?

 

[Jarcaines]

Should try a 1515-17*-45% on it now.

Tell me more!

I did figure out I had some sort of unidentified fuel flow issue. Rebuilt my tanks and it finished 3 heats last race. Just trying to take one thing at a time.

 

[Jeff Barnes]

Yes Mark is still doing props
