2MM VS. 3MM or larger - What size and what type to use?
Steve,
Hey thanks for the input! Ari at RP did mention something to that effect when I spoke with him after the first explosion, but I did not look into it. As far as "bending" it out, there must be some threshold that cannot be broken (i.e. too much distance vs. too little). Do you know what the tolerance is or should be? On a side note, what apex seals do you run? I'm collecting votes on which seals I should buy, Hurley, Atkins, Mazda...From Jim's comment I was thinking I might try some stock 2's, why not?
In regards to the deposits, in my other RX's I only used about 5-6 ounces of two-stroke oil a tank, but in this one I was putting in ~12-16. I may be wrong, but it seems logical to me that there was an excess. I cut it back down and this time the rotors look normal.
Thanks for all the help guys. I really appreciate all the ideas and comments.
Regards,
Gavin
