If you look in that thread I posted about midway down where it says "Question: Where can I find information to tune my engine???

Answer: This site will help out newbies alot when they tune their engine http://www.nitrorc.com/rn/articles/super_tune.asp "

It gives the direct link to the great info you are talking about SokuShi.

edit guess they moved it! anyways the link SokuShi gave will get you there.
 
And information regarding How to fix a pullstart ?
 
For that kind of information you can talk to me. :D

Depending on how it is broken, it might be easier to buy a new one...but I have rebuilt several (including some that would have been thrown away otherwise).
 
bah drop the pullstart and get a starter box :) i used to have to rebvuild my pulll evry 3 runs :( i hated it!
 
my neighbor followed the leader( i am very influential on him) and he bough the duratrax terracrusher. anyways he decided that it needed cleaning (which it did) and that the removal of the pullstarter was nessasary. BOING!! he got grease on his nice shirt and whined to me to fix it. i have fixed one before but it didnt work very well. is there a trick to it? duratrax is really gay about pullstarters. you can't just buy the starter, they make you buy the backplate too (at least for their torq.21's) its bullshit and I'm not letting micheal pay like 45$ for a stupid pullstart.
 
it really takes alot of effort and a screw driver to fix a pull start. and you need to go slowly. rushing through it will ounly make it break again as you fix it
 
The only trick to fixing a pull start is patience and a knowledge of how they should go together. If you have both, fixing them goes pretty quickly. I rebuild them in about 15 minutes (that is new spring or repaired spring, new line, and all respooled ready for install).

Since, this is a buggy related question...perhaps you should look into getting a starter box.
