another evader problem

[dougruss3]

My nitro evader has only 3 tanks of fuel through it besides break in and now it won't start. I took it apart and sealed every thing, put a new o-ring on the fuel tank lid, it has good compression. I even went through the trouble of replacing the piston pin, glow plug, head gasket, and fuel lines. When I go to start it I get air pockets in the fuel line going to the carb. If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated as this has been going on for a couple of weeks now and I'm getting sick and tired of not being able to run it .

Try resetting your needles back to stock. Make sure your glow starter is fully charged and try it again.

If you are getting air pockets in the fuel line, you may have a break in the line or not connected well. It could be your pressure line ( the one that runs from the exhaust to the fuel tank) as well. try replacing them with new line (again) but this time make the pressure line much longer ( 3x longer) and loop it up w/ a zip tie.This will reduce the pulses from the exhaust to the tank, and reduce foaming as well. Does the tank have a plunger for priming? If yes, rip that sucker out of there and plug it up. You don't need it anyway. To prime the engine, just hold your finger over the exhaust and turn it over a few times. Mark
