Re: Prop upgrade
I have a problem whit the propshaft, it doesn´t work as well as I need.
I think I have to change a coupling to make it sliding and correct the axial movement of engine and gearbox. When I make it I will refresh the post.
Best regards, Rubén.

Re: b18ft injectors.
If you have a poor batery when you wnat to start the engine all the power go to the start engine and the engine doesn´t start.
The resistor of your injectors must be 16 Ohm.
