When i first got the 4.6 for my savage .25, it ran EXTREMELY hot, 290+.. so i got a nova cooling head, now its running at 160.. it seems to run great, and at a half tank if u just let it idle for 1 second, it dies.. can anyone help me?


Edit: Im also running the .25-.28 THS racing pipe



HSN: 1 turn
LSN: 1/16 turn
MRN: Very Confused... was said to be flush, but wasnt out of the factory


Can anyone help?

put on a new gas tank

i used a Ofna 145cc tank

NewEra sells this unit and it's a nice piece that comes with the tank

yes the HPI tank is a real piece of $%*# what it does is start to lean your settings out at about half tank so you never have a "good" tune

Have you got the rear pick up racing hpi savage tank fitted or are you still running on the stock one i have changed over to the rear pick up one and found so much different within the truck
