    Floors get hot-how do you fix it?

    We used some on the trucks in my old job. It worked well. I have some on my fuel tank where the exhaust goes closer than I would like to the tank. It has stuck there for years, with water, sand, and mud. It is pricey or at least it was when I looked last. I need to do something like the heat...

    FiTech Help! - Broke Down on Side of the Road!!!

    Who did you talk to? I had a problem like that and was told to check the fuel pressure. I did and it stayed consistent. I had my FI-Tech running for about 2-3 years then it just died on me one day. Anytime I would coast to a stop or blip the throttle when it came down it would die. Turned out...

    Yeah just flat black for the floor. I tried to do a little weathering, but it just made it shiny and didn't like the look. I really should have painted it the same color as the exterior, but with all the problems with that paint I didn't want to add to it.

    Well I am mostly finished. Need to add a couple rust spots and maybe some burnt sienna on the tire cover. There are so many mistakes on this thing. The paint I had was messed up and would make a wavy type finish. I tried wet sanding then re spraying, but it did the same thing. I gave the paint...

    Here is my rolling chassis. I drilled the dizzy and added spark plug wires. Yes they are wired correctly. I filled in a lot of the open frame. The locking hubs were too far back with the hub caps. I added plastic then drilled it out a bit. I then added a bit of putty to look like the locking...

    Battery For Bronco

    I really love my AGM battery. If you buy an Orielly's AGM it is a Deka battery under Orielly's name. Price is around $160, but the AGM is worth it.

    Was at the hobby shop getting some leveling thinner and saw this little gem called Liquid Chrome pen. I looked at a sample and ended up buying one. Pricey, but it looks just like the plated chrome from the model...

    Do under car heatshields help?

    I don't know if it is the same manufacture, but quite a while ago I was given some scraps from work that they use on the semi trucks and it looks just like 904's stuff. The stuff I have has a sticky back that I placed on my fuel tank as the exhaust ran close past it. It has stayed stuck since...

    I have emailed with him and he seems very responsive. I even emailed with him about adding a hood scoop to my order and he gave it to me for free. He also said they were going to come out with more products.

    FiTech - What we have learned : Tips and Tricks

    It has been running fine for a little over a year. I had my first problem with my FItech Sunday July 2nd. It just died and sounded like no spark. Later on that week I confirmed it had no spark. I called FItech and they had me do some other trouble shooting to confirm it was the timing control...

    I bought three to do, A stocker, one like mine, and I have not decided on the third. I have to finish the Spitfire airplane I am working. Most things eat my time, but being a Den leader for Cub Scouts is eating most. It is worth it though.

    REVELL? model kit coming....

    As to glue I use a mix of super glue and Tamiya thin liquid cement. I build models and go to a plastic model club. Many of the guys use the Tamiya, Tenax, etc. I have a bottle of Testors and it dries slower which is good for some of the stuff I do. You just got to find what works for you.
