ENGINE MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
•
After a day of running, start your engine and choke it while
it is running to get a lot of fuel into the engine. Run it for
about 30 seconds, constantly choking the engine. Afterwards
it is a good idea to cover the inlet to the carburetor to keep
foreign materials out and moisture from entering the motor.
•
For long term (winter) storage it is a good idea to fl ood the
engine as described above as well as coating the inside
of the engine with After Run Oil 2 oz (HCAP3000)
•
Before transporting your model, remove all of
the gasoline from the tank and lines and make
sure your oil line shut off clip is locked.
RADIO BOX MAINTENANCE

radio box lid off overnight to allow any water to evaporate.
Remove standing water by pulling out the drain plug and
draining away any water that might have entered the hull.
