Just installed on my savage... Picco Monster .26

[nitroracer911]

Thought you guys would like to drool a second. :D

I had the Wasp .26 installed up until today. I know it's the same engine. I just heard that the Picco would run a little cleaner than the Wasp and that it had a little more HP. I will let you know.

sweet! but be warned my cosin has been haveing some serous problums with his. put it this way i ahv'ent seen that thing stay moving for even a 4rth of a tank.

[nitroracer911]

Can you tell me specifically what the engine is doing???

thanks

[rhcsavage21]

well one, the engine dos'ent start half the time. he has the thing so lean but the engine still fluds itself. i think he needs a starter box. but i don't know.

Nitro Racer, the WASP is the same engine. I mean identical, no extra HP or running any different.

[nitroracer911]

muswagon -

The LHS told me it was rated with a little more HP because the crank shaft was a different diameter than the WASP????

:confused:

Since when is there a Picco Monster .26? Im guessing its made by trinity instead of ofna. I know of the Ofna Picco .26. Is the Picco monster any better?

I just purchased the same engine for a Monster GT. How is yours running on the Savage. Any pointers I should know about break in?

I have not started it yet. I can't decide if I am going to run 20% or 30 % through it. If you run 30%, you will need to add a shim (see instruction book).

I will probably break it in tomorrow. I had the WASP (which is the same engine) and had a lot of problems with it. I returned it to Team Orion and then I purchased the Monster .26 at my LHS. I am hoping the Picco tunes a little easier.

Let me know how break in is going....

:cool:

Is the picco monster .26 the same engine as the picco outlaw .26 or is it different.

[nitroracer911]

not sure if its the same. The Picco Monster .26 is so new, there is not a lot of information out on it.

later

[yellafella321]

the picco wasp ofna are all the same engine.

Nitroburner...hows break-in going?

[dreedjr]

its not here yet.
