1. Remove the high speed needle(s)
(85) and flush out the spray bar with
clean fuel. Replace the high speed
needle(s) and follow the instructions
in the carburetor adjustment section.
2. Always use a high-quality 4-cycle
glow plug. The Hangar 9/McCoy
MC-4C is highly recommended.
Tips For Extended
Engine Life
To add longer life to your Saito engine,
we recommend the following:
1. Use a fuel containing 20%
lubricants.
2. Use the recommended glow plugs.
3. Use the proper propeller size and
balance the propeller prior to use.
4. Use a tachometer for precise
engine adjustments.
5. Use an“after-run”oil when you’re
finished flying for the day.
6. For long-term storage, make sure
there is no fuel left in the tank and the
engine. Remove the glow plug and
apply several drops of high-quality
oil (i.e., Marvel Air Tool Oil) to the
top of the engine, down the pushrod
tubes, and through the crankcase
pressure vent if applicable. Rotate the
crankshaft several times. Store the
engine in the box or on the airplane
with the nose down in order to keep
oil in the bearings.
Troubleshooting
Generally speaking, there are very
few things that will keep today’s
modern glow engines from starting.
To that end, make sure you’re using
good quality“fresh”fuel, there are
good glow plugs installed, and the
starting battery is charged and in
good condition. Should the engine
fail to start after these items are
verified, refer to the chart on the
following page.
