This section lists the recommended tools and supplies that you need to purchase and have onhand to finish assembling and to run and
maintain your new X-Terminator 2 RTR 4WD Nitro Buggy. We have tested these items extensively with the X-Terminator 2 RTR 4WD
Nitro Buggy and found that they offer the best in reliability and value.
WHaT fUEL Do i USE?
Fuel can make a big difference in the way your engine performs. For the break-in period you should use a fuel specifically designed for
R/C car engines that contains no more than 20% nitromethane and 0%~4% oil content. Once the engine has been adequately broken in
(about 45 minutes of run-time) you can switch to an R/C car fuel containing up to, but no more than, 30% nitromethane and 0%~4% oil
content.
Warning
We do not recommend using fuels designed for R/C aircraft engine use. These fuels do not contain the proper amount of
lubricants; therefore, they will cause the engine to overheat and severe damage to the engine will result.
Do i nEED To PUrCHaSE EXTra gLoW PLUgS?
Yes. Even though your XTM Racing 24.7 engine comes with a glow plug already installed, glow plugs wear
out, especially during the break-in period; therefore, it's a good idea to have a couple of spares handy. We
recommend using a "medium" or "hot" heat-range glow plug intended specifically for performance engines
like the XTM Racing # 4 (P/N 4602) or the XTM Racing # 3 (P/N 46020) during the break-in process.
After the break-in period you may want to use a different heat-range glow plug. Do not use glow plugs
intended for four stroke aircraft engines or glow plugs with an "idle bar". Using the wrong type of glow plug
will cause the engine to run erratically and make it difficult to tune properly. The wrong type of glow plug
could also damage the engine.

Do i nEED To USE a fUEL boTTLE?
Yes. Because fuel is packaged in larger containers, you will need to use a smaller
bottle with an extension wand to fill the fuel tank. Fueling using this method is much
easier and a lot less messy.

WHaT Do i USE To igniTE THE gLoW PLUg?
A glow starter is a battery-operated device that, when attached to the glow plug,
heats the glow plug so that the engine can start. The glow starter is then removed
after the engine is running.
