I have a Redcat Rampage, (I think 2.0) certainly 6 or more years old. Anyone know what motor came in these, can't find so far on my own.
I took motor out as died on me last winter running in the snow (this is what I mainly use for) but figured was all plugged up at air filter and it's a lot of wide open. Installed a new gas tank and lines then sat for most the summer, went to finally use again and started right up but before warmed up died. Maybe ran > 10 seconds and then wouldn't start again. Seemed to be turning over too easy. Did a compression check when go home and was nothing but I think that gauge is junk (I still need to check it on a know working engine) . I pulled motor apart and nothing super bad, just a bit of scuffing. Seen a part number on the bottom of motor on a tag but had gunk on it, went to wipe the junk off and the lettering whipped of with it, grrr!
Anyways I know it is a 2 bolt head but not sure CC. I am pretty sure the 3.0 are 4 bolt motors and I think this is a CY but any help would be great. At very least need a gasket set and a carb cleaning but likely a ring or top end which are cheap enough.
I will see if can do the math to figure out cc's also and test that gauge but figure would get a post started as sure many people know more about these trucks thank myself.
Thanks and Regards,
