troubleshooting traxxis need help
<span style="font-size: larger">I need help with my problem, i 'm working on a traxxis revo 3.3. I've been adjusting fuel all morning it will run on track good for about 30 seconds then die. Having hard time getting to idel also. Heres what ive checked, i put new gas in it, changed glow plug,idled up some that helped keep idleing better. the head temp is running about 160 degrees F. It seems to run strong when running but wll just die then starts back up. My thoughts is posible air leak in engine, gona dissasimble and seal any leaks next unless someone can give me better idea.
Thanks</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; FONT-SIZE: 9pt">160° F is not even close to where you need to be. The Engine needs to run in the range of approx 210° to 260°F. If you run it for 2/3 minutes and the temp at the glow plug is only 160° F you are running much, much too rich.
