Dou you guys think it would be a good idea to put a electric fan on my nitro rc to help keep contant cool air blowing on my engine to help keep it cool. My engine is putting out a nice stream of blue smoke but is still running at 300-350 deg. Do you think the fan would help?

no not a good idea rapid cooling on a nitro engine will accelerate wear and tear if your over heating just adjust the high speed needle  a half turnout /counter clockwise  or a lil less and that should help

Yeah, i agree that electric fan is not a good idea for cooling on a nitro engine. If your nitro engine will over heat, electric fan is not advisable to use. If that will accelerate wear and tear if over heating just adjust the high speed needle a half turn out. seo services
