First: What is that blue rubberish coated washer for?
Second: Is it normal for there to be about an 1/8 of an inch of play foreward and back along the crank? (It slides that distance foreward and back.)
Third: No Glowplug??? What should I run....
the blue washer is a dust shield for the front bearing it is a spare. the play is normal that will go away once the flywheel is on just make sure u pull it forward when u put that stuff on there, all motors have this. Plug OD99 MC9 RB6 medium plugs mostly
Excellent, I was a bit worried. Last NEW motor I had was an OS .18 a while back. Thanks.
Also... how do you know when to change that sheild? Is there a range where they are going bad or no?
if it gets phucked up somehow then change it
You'll know when to change the seal when the motor starts leaking fuel from the front bearing.

About what I figured. Didn't know if people were having them go out consistantly at a certain point or not though. And Mike, you reccomended a few plugs, which would/do you run?
i run a turbo head button lol
Mike, have you noticed any advantages of switching to the turbo? I was thinking about it when I read Tom Wolf switched over.
Dan, run the Werks 2013 pipe.
i got a little more run time, seems like its a bit easier to tune also
I already have a JP3. If you were to pick a plug to run with my motor and Werks 30% which would it be?
mike you gave od97 wit your motor
eat my ass crack
97 is a turbo he has standard
How much is the turbo head button?? Worth switching?
I think I remember seeing the turbo head buttons on werks' site right?
ya i dunno how much it is tho i cant remember
I run the od99 on mine. Good plug and long lasting.
Are the OD99's easier to get now, they seemed hard to get a while back.
Cool, Thanks guys. I'll probably order up a few plugs and some stick packs later this week. Need to order the clutch now. :-)
OD99s are easy to get now. I get mine through amain, but lh has them at the track too, if you're in a pinch.
Yeah the shortage has been over for awhile
