A taste of New York for you.
Cant get e-free here unless you get canned fuel
Tested at 19% ethanol ............... supposed to be no more than 10%

Ethanol sucks

BIL's Goblin 500 Sport is in rehab


Strong unexpected wind gust smacked it to the ground and caused minor, but grounding, damage.
Servo horn/lever broke.


He has spares, but the problem is he left his spare parts box at home, 1000Km one way from where he is right now.
I've been trying all AM to source the part (that generally sells for ~10-20$ in a lot of four) here in Croatia, so far it's a no go!

Luckily , no ethanol in our fuel so far!

When they start f-ing up the gasoline with ethanol here I'll have to convert my OPE and car to diesel and run them on sunflower cooking oil.

DuBro should have something for that

Ordering without 24 hour delivery is not an option, he is leaving this weekend!

Sister said I should stop bothering, that it'll be a good lesson for him not to take a toy that expensive on a trip if he's gonna leave minor spare parts worth a couple bucks at home!
I'm still trying to reach a RC model shop about 200Km one way from my place, if they have the part we'd go on a road trip and pick it up ourselves.

Pack of 8 for 11$.

I guess my BIL will have a couple of these in one pocket of each and every trousers of his in the future . . .

What is your test method?

Ethanol sucks

I hate ethanol being added to pump gas, but I will admit that ethanol has its place and can be useful.

Ethanol has a higher octane rating and is more resistant to detonation. It is best utilized in forced induction engines (supercharged/turbocharged) and is more stable during atomization under the higher pressures. Not saying it is good for 2 strokes, but it does have its uses.

Got this little beauty finished up. Gotta get a set of dogs for it and I have a 3/4 wrap coming for it. Can't wait to run it tomorrow probably won't even sleep tonight View attachment 121060 View attachment 121061 View attachment 121062 View attachment 121063

Looks like a nice 12 mm 044. What jug is on it, what have you done to it, and how does it run???

Oem jug and a metor piston no base gasket matched the muffler to the cylinder. And I haven't put it in wood yet but sounds pretty strong.
