Trx 3.3!
Ok guys i brok down and bought the t-maxx 3.3, and i just got my first prob!
I just got done with the brake in and all is goiing smooth, i head out the the street to do alittle bashing and all is going fine, and then it cut out, so i walked over to it and i noticed that the plug was cocked to the side abit, so i took off the plug wire and wen the plug wire came out, the plug was still attched to the wire, aprt of the head broke off wen the plug came out.
So i just called traxxas and they were no help i " it must have been user error, are trucks are not made to be drivin hadr on the street, if u wanted a street truck u should of gottin the jato, sorry we can help u with the we can sell u a new head if u wan. i said no thanks its ok bye.
This is why i stayed away from traxxas in the first place because of stupid thing like this!
This is were i need u guys, i need a new cooling head for the engine, i don't care is its used or is missing the black head cap.
I only got $5-$10, so any of u guys got an old one laying around?
Thanks guys, Rcu is the best!!!

It is in possible for that to happin it has to be user error, out tech guys has never in staled a plug in the wrong way ever, u must have installed it wrong, i said its the factory plug! thtas in possible!

RE: Trx 3.3!
Yeah, i've got one lying around after my 3.3 blew a main bearing. Its a little chewed up from the shrapnel but it should work. Sounds like your cooling head wasn't tightned down from the factory and it ran really lean and fried the glow plug and made the head brittle from the heat and cracked it.
I learned this lesson also on my new O.S .18TM. Thank god only fuel leaked out before I shut it off. TIGHTEN DOWN YOUR COOLING HEAD SCREWS.
