Default help!!!

ok, I was out running my truck, and I could tell that it wasnt running very well, after a couple minutes, smoke started coming from the head. I have never seen that before. a few minutes later, the engine died. I dont know what was happening. Also, I dont think my brakes work. The servo doesnt move when I apply the brakes. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like it's to lean and you need to charger the batteries in the reciever.

well, My head is tight, the batteries ar good, and Im running pretty rich. THe smoke is gone, but it seems like when my engine stops (by itself) I cannot start it untill it cools off a bit. I dont have a temp gun, but I am running rich.

Hehe! Just blow them back into the fuel tank or take off the fuel line and blow the stuff out, then put the fuel line back on, prime it and start it. Just try it.
