Quick video showing how I remove and replace a Dykes piston ring on my Irvine 46 glow engine for my RC aeroplane.

Fascinating stuff. I had no idea the ring sat so far up the piston on model engines as I’ve never had any of mine apart. Very informative👍🏻 Thanks for sharing such useful information😎👍🏻

Amazing that you can find on youtube guides for even this kind of stuff. I have broken Dykes ring on removal from the old Webra engine, eventually managed to get replacement, and I really appreciate guide how to install it without breaking.

What the advantages and disadvantages of ringed glow engines and non ringed?

@MarkRobinson555 2 жыл бұрын

Non ringed generally are a bit more powerful, than ringed engines, but a ringed engine lasts longer, both are good. I have two Irvine 46 engines, on ABC, the other ringed, but you would not know the difference when running
