This is what they write: SPECIAL FRICTION MODIFIERS help minimize friction, keeping heat at bay for maximum power and torque at high RPMs 2X MORE...
Thanks, its some of the pics uploaded by other users - e.g. some recent but not all pictures in the RC24 resurrection thread. They seem to be...
Cleaning of tank, fuel lines and carburettors and new gaskets. The O-ring degrade over time. I have been through exactly what you describe.
