ez start on revo
Hello,
I noticed that sometimes when there is no fuel in the line and I hit the ez start it draws it from the tank and into the carb in about 5 seconds and starts great, but if the line is already full of fuel it won't draw the fuel in to the carb. Why sometimes and not others. Yesterday I tried to prime it by blowing into the pressure line from the exhaust and could not move it, why? any tips? thanks

you are most likely just pushing more fuel in it and cant tell. i wouldnt blow on the fuel line it is very dangerous because nitro is very toxic. if your having trouble starting try putting a drop of fuel down the carb and make sure the motor isnt flooded

Firstly, please becare priming fuel to your carb, like nqyou86 said it is poisionous and highly toxic. If you do get a little on your mouth make sure to spit it out and wash it with pleny of water.
The main reason why no more fuel is going into the carb is because forcing fuel through a really tiny nozzle which than gets mixed with the air in the carb. That is why it feels like no fuel is going into the carb.
Best thing is to check that you are not overly rich that the engine won't start, because you'll just burn out your glow plugs really fast and also check that it is not flooded.

Belive me it sucks to get nitro in your mouth i have first hand experience lol.
To prime your revo just put your finger over your exaust opening and watch the fuel fill the line to the carb. If you are using the easy start contnue to hold your finger over the exaust for another second or 2. remove your finger and the revo should fire right up.
