So I have an old Nitro MT1 with the .15FE engine. I believe it to be a bit tired, it starts ok here and there, sometimes it's a real pain once it dies after running it. I feel I have to keep the idle higher than normal to help it stay idling.
So the drivetrain is stock for the vehicle, 1spd Transmission which I'm debating swapping to 2spd.
Are there any budget factory engines I should consider, I'm thinking new would be best.
Any recommendations on size, I know bigger is more power. I'm looking for power, ease of keeping it running I guess that would be tunability? Unless my entire problem is glow plug related which I'm using a medium temp glow plug with traxxas fuel.
I might do Roto start, generally I'm,good with a pull start but my arms are killing me from this engine, although I'm thinking it's just the tired ebgine.
Is there a certain type of engine I need that bolts right into the frame?
