Run-in on used motor ?
Kai - 4-8-2004 at 15:37

Hi.
I'm the proud owner of 3 Whitepoint chassis :D
The motors are not performing the same.
I think the motor is called Bühler Schwarz ?

I'm not thinking of cheating !
...but are there a way to do some kind of run-in or maintenance on a used motor ?

Hi Kai,

Who has build the chassis? The engines are not delivered standard with the chassis so someone has put them in.
How did you determine the engines are not the same?
Everybody is thinking of cheating. It 's just a matter of whether you find it acceptable for yourself or not. If so that it's definitely not cheating but someone else might be convinced that you are!!!

Unmount the engines and clean them with excelerant. Not too long!
Typical 1 minute in a glass in both directions at a low voltage 3 a 4.

Cheers

The chassis + motor are in the same package.
If i ride all 3 chassis with the same gears and wheels, they are not performing the same.
Are there another word for excelerant, I don't understand what that is ?

In Danish it is called 'rensebenzin'

15-30 secs max

next time you come to Frederikssund, use the Kelvin Light Testing bench before working with that stuff :coke:

10-4 Henrik.
Its hard to get answers like this on our Danish Forum :cry:

The 'tricks' are known so far by only a few people. :) That may be why the decent answers are so rare sometimes...

BTW you probably just need to ask the questions :gun: They usually don't come flying by themselves ;)

And I agreee with you, many times you get a snotty answer and end up getting pissed off :coke:

I wonder who told you this one
I gues you have seen it happen in Le Mans :laugh:
this means I have to watch out before I open de magic box

Greetz Gert : Dam that bike is looking good:cool::cool::cool:

Here´s anotherone. The mounting screw to mount the engine to the mounting bracket should NOT be tightened to much. This will cause the engine can to bend including the oilite bearing reducing the max revs quit a lot.
You can test this easily by mounting everything, run the engine on let´s say 7 to 10 volts and then start tightening the screw. Listen to the engine carefully for a change in revs. Especially new engines are sensitive for this.

Cheers

If you are using a Parma 16D you could losen or tighten the springs a little
it makes a big differents:D

Greetz Gert: My God what am I doing :laugh::laugh:

I find it highly worrying that some of the other Danes Of Thunder has resorted to ask these kind of questions on this forum:cool: Then Henrik and I dont have no inside track anymore:) and we NEED IT:laugh:

On a more serious note I guess the run in technique described by Henrik is the next best thing since sliced cheese. Just made two Bison this way and my LMS car managed a sub 6 sec. lap, the first ever at our club and my NASCAR made a sub 6.5 sec lap, another first ever. And I´m still using my simpel NSR controller, practising the NSR is a must what, with the IMCA Worlds and all comming up!! Ohh yeah by the way, my danish NASCAR series car is still 15 grams over weight, they will be gone by sunday!!! ROCK´N´ROLL;)

Pål

I didn't know that you were participating in The Liga With No Name :laugh:


2h - 11-8-2004 at 20:20

Don't worry we're not :)

To those who don't know The Liga with No Name: It is a White Point liga run by very suspicious persons in Denmark - with some highly suspicious rules:gun:
