i haven't run this .40 4-stroke truck in years and a friend of mine has been bugging me to see it run. i have it set very rich because it is the first tank in many years.

i also have a smaller truck with a 26 4-stroke in it that runs nice too. It sure would be nice to use one of these engine to power an rc dozer but, they spew so much oil...

Thanks, i built this truck in 2001 and it is on its second piston, ring & cylinder set. All of the bearings are original though. If i know it won't be run for a long time i remove the cam bearing cap/cover and put about 1/2 ounce of oil in the crankcase and move it around to saturate the bearings.
