Hi, I Am New To Rc Nitro Boating, And It Looks Like I Did What Alot Of Other People Did. I Purchased A Miss Bud 1/12th Scale Rtr Kit However I Am Having Many Problems With Getting It To Run Consistently So To Make A Long Story Short I Thought I Would Buy A Plastic Tub Line It With Foam On The Nose End Of The Boat And Run The Boat And Work On Tuning It However I Have Been Unable To Find A Small Water Pump To Circulate Water Through THE ENGINE Does Any One Have An Idea Where To Find Such An Animal? Thanks

Got an empty 2 liter pop bottle? Punch or drill a 1/8" hole in the bottom side of it, install a short piece of 1/" brass tubing into it then use some Shoe-goo type of adhesive to hold it in place. Run some fuel tubing from that to your engine, fill with water and you'll have an easy way to cool your motor.

I use a windshield washer motor to cool my boats when I need to run them for a few minutes. Paid $5.00 for a universal fit motor and run it off my 7.2V RC pack. Less water at the lower voltage.

You can by a simple fuel pump (10 $) and just put a tube from a small water tank through the pump through the moto and back to the watre tank
