how long did it take to get your new motor and is it Worth the 99.00 for the HPI .25 and did it come with a pull start on it???

It took 10 buisness days to get from KY to CA and back. I think it's well worth $99.00, especially compaired to what some of the other engines cost. Basically, it comes exactly as is you were to buy one from the hobby shop, engine (with pull start,) instructions, decals, air filter and wrench, and a HPI box.

check some things
1: check you setting make sure there right
2: some times it stalls because its too rich
3: check so see if everything will move freely
4: check to see if you have combustion, when you move it freely
5: try starting it on factory specs hsn: screw all the way in, 3 turns out, lsn, go flush, one turn in
