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 running. It was running ok, shifting fine, but the idle was a little high, ok a lot high. so I would bring it in and turn it down, then it stopped shifting. Now I have spent 2 solid days trying to get it right starting at ground zero (3 turns out on each) about 100 times. When I finally get it to run descent (it is still not shifting) It is so rich that it will die idling) I am trying to keep the temp down. I'll bring it in temp through the roof, I’ll richen it a 1/4 turn, run it bring it back in and it will not change. Finally it will die while taking a temp reading. And if I pull the filter off, it died due to flooding. Temps have been as high as 390's and I keep richening it and they will not come down. Thinking of rebuilding and starting over.
Any Ideas?
