hello everyone--

I have 2 questions


1# I recently cleaned my one way berring after a gallon of running and everything was back to normal-- it was not stripped just very caked with this weird slimy gray oily stuff--

4 tanks later after the cleaning it was caked witrh the gray stuff again I cleaned it and everything is cool however I dont like having to take it apart and clean it so ofter --- where does this gray stuff come from???????????????????????

if im going to drill a small hole for wd40-- where?? and will this work


2## I cracked another engine mount plate-- the purple one--- the crack is small and the truck still runs however is there such a thing as a super heavy duty engine mount for the savage???


thanks you guys have made my life with the savage so much easyer

like I said my one way bering gets covered in gray slime in like 3 tanks these days and that I have to clean it alos some times the roto start locks up when it try to start it-- whats happening here??

plus where can a get the strongest engine mount plate for my savage??

As far as point 1 goes it could be due to very high oil content in the fuel you use.
It once happened to me when a "friendly" guy at "not so local" hobby shop sold me helicopter fuel.

As far as I know there isn't any stronger engine mount plates, but you could possibly have some fabricated at a local metal shop of a thicker aluminum. I haven't ever heard of someone cracking that, wow. Trinity isn't really that high of oil, too, I never had this problem, have you tried sealing your backplate where it meets the motor, it does sound like a lot of oil leaking out. I'd say if you haven't sealed the backplate where it mounts to the motor, this could definetly be the culprit.

Savage LTD , what engine are you running ? If it's the S-25 it has an external one way bearing and if you are running too rich oil can leak from the exhaust header and find it's way into the oneway.

LTD you need a plate or a mount? the Nova racing mount is about the stongest I 've seen. If you keep breaking mounts look deeper, I had the same problem and it turned out to be the cross braces under the motor. I replaced those and am now running the stock mount, with no breakages. You want a strong plate try the one on this site.

its titanium alloy. I almost bought it, then I fixed my cross braces and went with the stock plate and mount.
