Miniature Aircraft Nitro/Gas Helicopters > Moving OMI carb to a new engine

I have an OS 91 with the OMI cline carb, and I wanted to switch the OMI modded carb to a new OS 91 pumped so I no longer have to use the OS pump. I am not sure the best way to do this (or if you even can!), but here is what I think I need to do:

1) Remove the OMI cline regulator unit (the white, square thing) from the engine it is on by removing the entire high needle valve holder (otherwise, I can't get access to the screw that holds the entire carb unit to the engine as it is blocked by the cline regulator unit).

2) After I remove the high needle valve holder, the cline regulator unit is attached to this valve, so it will come off with it, which will give me access to the screw that holds the carb on.

3) Then remove the remaining part of the carb, and then attach the carb to the new engine after removing the carb that came with the pumped engine.

4) Then re-attach the high needle valve holder that still has the cline regualtor attached.

Does this make sense?

Any advice is greatly apprecated.

There is one step you neglected, Remove Viperhead,send to Junkpilot.
There is nothing I've done that improves the C-Spec like a Viperhead!
Good luck; junkpilot

The SZ head works well on the Cspec
