    Very Stupid Question

    It has been taken apart already. Couldn't figure it out so we stripped it. Waiting for new parts. Still worried about breaking in the two new t-maxx's. Confiedence is down, go figure.

    Very Stupid Question

    I think so, couldn't get motor to run below 300's, as high as 390. I had put wd-40 in it the night before. Bear in mind this was my first nitro car and the first days ever. So I took it out the next day and it wouldn't do anything right. not shift, run way too hot. I am rebuilding the motor now...

    Very Stupid Question

    Would forgetting to put the glow plug washer back in after performing the after-run procedure the night before cause a motor to run hot and not be able to richen enough to keep the temp down?

    Crank Bell has blueing

    I think it is called a crank bell, very new to R/C, but reading 3-4 hours a day. Anyway, the bell on the crank, with the gear. It is bluing, is it supposed to get that hot? Thanks

    Losi Will not tune!!

    Ok, will do. The mach 427 is a BB correct. When I put that in low rpm break in for a longer period of time? Do i need to adjust anything on the tmaxx while breaking in, or after? Kind of nervous seeing as how i just smoked one engine, albeit used when I got it.

    Losi Will not tune!!

    I was running Blue Thunder, unfortunately recommended by the Hobby Shop. I have Top fuel to run in my new t-maxx, breaking it in Sat. Or should I break it in with Blue Thunder? I am going to stay with 20% on the t-maxx, and 20% on the Losi after I put the new motor in next week. Do I have to...

    Ok, good. I am not racing, just want to have some fun. I got them because when I go to the drag strip we have about 2 hours of down time ( I like to get there early) these are just to kill time. LOL, 1000 dollars for toys to kill time, go figure I have been reading alot about tuning...

    Lovely, thanks But why wouldn't it come down, we ricened it to the point that it would die when I stopped the truck, and wouldn't start. Also we are driving the truck on a large open grassy area

    Losi Will not tune!!

    I have a Losi Aftershock. Completely stock Bought it used, less than 4 tanks run through it, so I was told anyway. Had trouble keeping it running when I first brought it home. It would start then I would take off, about 30-40 feet it would die. Tried richening it, finally got it to stay...
