Ninco metal gears

[Locura]

Hi

I have just put together a old style Ninco Megane using metal Prorace gears and now remember how noisy they can be.

Any tricks to quieten them please?

keep running it.

And running, and running, and running, and running,and running, then run it a little more. The Megane is a sweet car and one of the best in my stable. It looks like a pizza delivery car but sure doesn't drive like one.

Yes, I'd like a large sausage with extra cheese and anchovies.

auto parts store.
Permatex 34A valve grinding compound.
run the gears in @ 5v for a while.
liberally clean & lube.
enjoy.

Many thanks

I have run several laps and it is already a bit quieter.

I will try to buy some valve paste as they say noise equals friction and loss of speed.

Cheers
