I have a relatively new less than 8 tanks in it lst with a problem. Whenever I hit the brakes and then let off the brakes due to the servo saver my throttle position is moved forward to about half throttle. This will reset itself after i blip the throttle several times but this is very annoying not to mention unsafe. Any suggestions? I've tried dry lubing the servo saver to no avail.

thanks

I have the same problem on mine. Its only 6 tanks old, and it does that, but I think its just from being new. It seems that its just got to wear in a bit and it will stop. That problem went away already on mine. It must just be a new truck thing. See if it gets any better, and go from there. Keep an eye on it. It should get better, but if not, contact back, and maybe we'll know more.
 
thank you. You are right i called losi and they said that. They also told me to take it apart and clean it then reassemble it. I also moved the throttle return spring to the tank screw for added pressure during this break in period.

Thank you for oyur help,

Anytime bud. I just finished breaking my LST in tonight, and the brake working the throttle problem didn't come up at all. And yeah, myself and my dad were going to clean the saver they have on the throttle just in case. It makes its big debut at my local raceway this weekend, after a month and a half wait because the original engine they sent with the truck blew up. Lower rod bushing went and took everything out. They fixed it, sent me an engine back, and good as new. Hope you have alot of luck with yours. Take Care.
 
Just to let you know they had a recall on some of those engines. They now have a version 2 engine. So if you have a version one you can send it back and they are suppose to give you a version 2
