hi guys i have been handed this engine to find out if there is a problem with it.it seems to be very low on compression, i have had the guts out of it and it seems to have had a new liner and piston and a new ring fitted. the only thing i can see that may be caurseing a problem is the ring may be getting pinched by the ring grove in the piston which is not letting the ring expand to fit the liner bore would i be right in my thoughts???or could it be the liner collar that has been machined to long there by increaseing the conbustion chamber and there by lowering the compression i am totally stumped by this 1 can any 1 help please

hy guys i'm hoping that some1 out there can help me with photos or any thing else to do with thjs model as it was my first trainer it has a wire fus and a 35 engine it also had a massive 72'' foam cored wing it was a 3 channel model with very slow flight ideal for a trainer

thanks guys for the replies thats made it all as clear as mud to me LOL but as soon as i get the micro servos i will get on to it again and i will post soom pics on here to go with the fus   http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh129/loco-driver/PICT0004.jpg http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh129/loco-driver/PICT0006.jpg http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh129/loco-driver/PICT0007.jpg
