Tips and Techniques from the past:
Temax tips By Ted Brian Rodwicz
​
Fish fuel tubing through firewalls using a soda straw. Cut a taper at one end and stuff the fuel tubing in the other. the result is a needle you can use to pull the fuel tubing through.
Splice Nyrod housings together with soda straws. Sand the outer housings and use zap ca on the joints.
Craft stix (popsicle stix) have 1000's of uses including holding fuel tanks in place and supporting Nyrods.
Battery Pack dating:
When installing new battery packs use a permanent marker (sharpie these days) to write the date on your battery.
