3.3 engine that will not start

[Kfarron1]

I have a 3.3 that just dosent want to start, I had put it on my truck last night, everything installed correctly including the owb (text towards teh engine) it started and ran for like 10 mins then died, then just wouldnt restart, I changed glow plugs and it still wouldnt re-start, tried again this am, still wouldnt restart... Compression doesn't feel that bad to the point of needing a new engine but what else could this be, I also put a brand new carb on it and tuned properly back to factory and then richened it up a lil due to no starting... The only thing I can think of is my fuel line is kinda pinched but it still allows fuel through, would that stop an engine from starting? I'd really like to get this tmaxx running so I can sell it and get some money towards the redcat 1/5th scale I want...

Thanks in advance.

Are you using the EZ-Start and sure that the glow plug is glowing? Is it spitting fuel out the exhaust. Also factory setting is usually rich so you may need to lean it instead. If no spitting and you're not sure if it's getting fuel,prime it with a few drops in the carb.

I got it running guys, the fuel line had a kink in it under the tank, I dunno how but it was there, replaced the whole line with some fresh stuff, gave it a whip with the ez starter wand and my finger over the exhaust, started right up, drove a tank of gas through it with no problems...

Good Stuff!
