I have a losi 810 that I replaced the spur gear in all teeth mesh together and everything fits correctly but the car refused to start if their is any resistance on the clutch bell at all please help I’ve been trying to get this started for 4 days and it has brand new glow plugs and will start if the differential is out
 
If your clutch is dragging you have to look inside it and see what is going on. It should spin freely.

should be no resistance from the CB or it will be hard to start or at least will not idle. if the crankshaft is engaging the clutchbell at idle speed there is some sort of issue or binding at the clutbhell, might need to shim or remove shims so the clutchbell spins freely.
