Tamiya 9808138 Piston Rod for Engine Rebuilds

When overhauling classic Nitro RC power units, the Tamiya 9808138 piston rod is a go-to replacement. It is crafted to fit original engine geometries so restorations run true and last longer on track or at the club field.

Key Points About the Piston Rod

Compatibility: Made to align with selected older Tamiya Nitro engines so the assembly mounts correctly.
Durability: Built from sturdy materials to resist wear during spirited running and reduce downtime.
Maintenance: Ideal for both full rebuilds and regular strip-down checks to preserve engine health.

Will this piston rod improve engine reliability?

Replacing a worn rod with a correct-fit part like this reduces vibration and wear, which helps reliability, provided the rest of the engine is in good condition.

Are any modifications needed to fit the rod?

No major modifications should be necessary if the engine is one of the supported vintage Tamiya types. Minor cleaning or bearing replacement may be required for a correct installation.

What signs indicate a piston rod failure?

Look for increased noise, loss of smooth revs, visible shaft damage or a sudden drop in compression. These are indicators to inspect and possibly replace the rod.
