Well I fixed my problem with my new f4i (new to me) turns out it was just a faulty fpr.... i bought a new motor (great deal) i was gonna drop in and found the bad regulator in the process. so i ordered a new one and voila runs amazing. i thought it was a motor problem because the compression was low in cylinder 3, but i guess its not too low. i was going to just start fresh with a less mileage motor. my motor has 23k miles on it, and now i have a motor with 11k just sitting here. maybe ill put it on a banshee frame haha. anyways i got bored with my dremel and decided to disect the fpr. heres pictures of the guts....

 

23k is pretty low for a F4i. Haha keep the spare and blow the old!

 

haha yea. i know its low, but who knows if the last guy dogged the hell out of it. im keepin the motor here for that day though lol
