    trx 3.3 carburetor

    So I stripped the fuel inlet on my carb on a trx 3.3 for a tmaxx classic. I know I can get the carb body at my lhs for $16 since the components are still good. My question is is it worth it to just get a diff carb altogether or.just stick with stock? I've heard of traxxas carbs having vapor lock...

    Air leak - Carburetor slide and dust boot

    I have taken my TRX 3.3 engine apart in order to clean it. After having it put together I did a test to detect air leak using a soapy solution.

    Can't get carburetor back on to hpi 4.6 engine!!

    Hi, I am in the process of sealing my engine and I am unable to get my carburetor back on. I don't think it's being held up by the locking pin but I guess I'm not sure. Should it take a lot of force to push it back on? It seems like its getting hung up before even reaching the locking pin. I've...

    Taking the Carburetor off a TRX Engine...?

    I've been trying to get this "pinch bolt" as the internet says to take out, and it should twist right out. Well, I can't get the pinch bolt. It's not a screw like the example engines I've seen, so I can't just twist it out. (At least I don't think" and I tried putting a screw driver over it and...
