So i been working on my truck, and sure enough i run in to a issue not even having it 3 days. I thought today was a tad warmer so i wanted to run half tank. I go to start the truck, now keep in mind i think my one way bearing is slipping as i have a pull start. I could not prim this motor. i try from the fuel tank then i try to pull the starter. I pull off the line and no fuel, it was not getting past my fuel filter. I take that off and the line is still long enough to go to the carb. I get the truck started and i do some driving around and for some reason it was running weird. Like it was lean real lean, i had a real high idle i could not get it to stay right. I go back to factor brake in specs and the carb is set to .8 mm or so. I get it to start up and sure enough it was running like crap. I get it in after i said i am done, it was running bad not based on the REAL rich settings . Guess what the damn blue dust boot on the low speed needle broke. I called the hobby store i got the truck from. They do not have that part and they said to come done tomorrow . I want to know can i use any boot on a 3.3? I do not trust them they will rig the hell out of it . I been in to this a long time they had no idea of that part. I had to say its the blue part on the low speed needle . He goes hold on let me get a jato i have over here. I then told him again. He goes ohhhh yea i see, i do not have one. Man oh man, i ask him this could cause a lean like issue? He goes ummm. i said fuel is around the area he goes yea i guess. I tell ya guys i rather ask you people to be honest. I do not trust them i sure as hell will bring up the pull start and they WILL GIVE ME A NEW BEARING . Used is used but man i tell ya most people who buy these kind of toys used all ways have issues.
