mic_VR 3 Posted May 3, 2016 So today I was given, by a colleague, a Traxxas T-Maxx nitro truck.... (pics to follow once I'm home) It's not running at the moment so needs a bit of tart up but anyone got any experience with these or any other nitro motors? Any tips or tricks would be appreciated.... or should I just convert it to electric? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
p0l1wrath 10 Posted May 4, 2016 Only just seen this thread, but I have a 1/8th (I think) electric car (can't remember model) with a Corrado shell on, pretty sure it's a decent one and got it for a steal! Will try and get a pictUre later if I remember For that nitro one, whip the shell off and the glow plug out the head, stick the plug in the starter and see if it's working, also whilst the plug is out pull the pull start (if it's pull start) and check the piston is moving, and that fuel is getting pulled in. If the plug doesn't glow, could either be the plug, or the plug starter. If the piston doesn't move, could be the pull start, or seized piston If no fuel, check for disconnected or clogged fuel lines and make sure the carb is opened up enough Hope this helps Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
