Because of initial tightness, a standard
electric starter may have difficulty in
rotating the engine when cold, before it
has been adequately run-in. In this
case, use a high-torque type starter.
DO NOT, however, confuse tightness
with the symptoms of hydraulic lock
caused by an excess of fuel within the
cylinder - often the result of over-
priming.
Attempting to force the engine to turn
over in this condition may cause
internal damage. Instead, remove the
glowplug, invert the engine and eject
surplus fuel from the combustion-
chamber.

Note:

This is a high performance engine
expressly designed for F3C competition.
The engine uses the same mounting hole
spacing as the O.S. 61SX-H RING WC
making them interchangeable.
However, higher gear ratio is required for
the 91SX-H RING C Spec which generates
maximum power at lower rpm than the 61
size engines.
New design 60K-C carburetor has three
adjustable controls which enables
independent adjustment at idling, hovering
and high speed.
