If you really think there was smoke coming out of the clutch area, its possible the F bearing is going out and is losing its seal, robbing you of compression and power.
Nitro engines are a freaking pain. So much little crap to break.

20%, and a med glow plug. Did not take plug temps... The coil is still silver, but the outside is about the color of the oil that comes out of the exhast. Black in the motor, I am not sure. Not that I can really see.
I am trying to do a conversion, I really am... But it will take time, and in the mean time, I want to enjoy my nitro investment. It's still an R/C!
