Wooders28 4703 Posted May 14, 2020 Recently restored a Fusion .21 Belt was shreaded, both diffs had issues,and idlers damaged. Luckily, Schumacher had all the spares I needed, treated it to new wheels and tyres. Got a new #6 plug, and some new 25%, and went to fire it up, bearings in the pinion where seized (never checked....🤦♂️) and it drove itself off the end of the bench...... New bearings arrived ,fitted and now starts ,runs and drives!! New body arrived, so a lick of paint ,and it'll be ready to go, whenever that is possible....🙄🤷♂️ Got the thing painted, went for the 'Cannonball ' theme.. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jbostontgs 8 Posted May 27, 2020 @Wooders28 thanks for the thread, good to see them still about, upload a pic when you finished off the body shell, and Did you get your new parts from the Schumacher website? 👍🏼 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

M 800STD 586 Posted January 20, 2022 Do like a Fusion. Such a quick car. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

M 800STD 586 Posted January 21, 2022 .21 in a 1/10, no one else was doing that. The closest was a .15 and they're nothing compared to a .21. IIRC, those XTR's were very quick too. Dare I say a little faster than the Fusion's. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IIRC, those XTR's were very quick too. Dare I say a little faster than the Fusion's. Aye, the XTR3e was a handful, maybe a bit small a scale for the speeds it could achieve off road. I couldn't really get a decent reliable tune with the supercharger, seem to burn out plugs, no matter what # the plug, think the belt might have been slipping, but when it ran , it ran good enough to strip the 3rd gear 😁🤦♂️ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M 800STD 586 Posted January 21, 2022 Always wondered about those SC kits. 1. Was the tolerances close? 2. Fueling. Thinking about it now, I suppose you could put high needle on third channel and mix with channel 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thinking about it now, I suppose you could put high needle on third channel and mix with channel 2. Not a clue. I understand the plug heat ranges (kind of...you can essentially alter ignition timing with them too?) The mixture ,I went off sound and smoke, but I think I always kept it on the rich side, as I was feared of melting parts...😳 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M 800STD 586 Posted January 22, 2022 Yeah, same. On sound, smoke and a little rich to prolong engine. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wranger 9 Posted January 30, 2022 Randomly, I have an old nitro 10 kit to sell. Was just too fast for me. I’m getting rid for £120… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
