    The one on you tube pretty much sums it up rev it to high for to long ....plastic parts and heat = melt down.... I didn't notice the date of the video but the engine that the guy run had a fake injectors on it ......Good luck...

  3. I got one for Christmas when I was 11 years old. I still have it. Super cool model, Dad and I put it together and he taught me how an engine works.
