[SPAM] RE: Moki 180

[Bill Southwell]

Hi Ron,

 

 

  I ran 5% up to 15% in both of mine. The throttle response got better with
more nitro. They are very sensitive to fuel tube size and can give you fits
if the delivery is not high flow. I solved all of the delivery problems with
a Cline Reg.  It ran like a OS sf46!  I could use 5% and have no
power/transition issues. The idle/transition was a bit  balky until the
cline device. Throttle was immediate and clean any place from idle to WFO
after installing the reg. I wish it hadn't parted with that beast!  

 

Hope that helps some.

To be honest, if weight wasn't an issue, I would use the MOKI 180. I have
not used an engine more user friendly or more robust than that one, and has
power to burn. Piped, propped and mounted correctly, it could be made fairly
quiet. It was nice to just fuel it, prime it, one flip start it, and have it
last several seasons without any hint of a problem. No bearings, no rods, no
rings, or anything else for that matter.




I have virtually no experience with MOKI engines, other than to sell fuel to
owners and listen to complaints from the ones who aren't convinced that
MOKIs want/need low % nitro fuel to operate properly. Does anyone care to
comment which fuel works best in their MOKI?
