Hello,
I own a Hot Bodies D8 with the GO Engine .21 pro rear exhaust 3 port engine installed.
When i purchased the engine i was told i would need to heat it up with a hair dryer for a while before it would start without it, being caused by a tight fitting piston that would eventually wear down to give optimal performance.
I live in the dulwich hill area so there are no suitable places for me to use the car nearby that are not near people. Adding to this is an incident i had with this car caused by an bad battery, which caused the car to race away at full throttle with me left with no control.
I should mention that before using the car, i ran about 5 tanks of fuel through it whilst raised of the ground, increasing the rpm steadily towards the end. Then i put it on the ground and did a few tanks at low speeds. It was when i started to do a few runs at higher speed that my battery died and it raced off and did its own thing
If anyone could give me advice on how long i should need to heat it before use for or any ways to get the fit right it would be much appreciated. Having to heat it up is making it difficult to use with no suitable places nearby.
Cheers
