Good Evening guys and gals I need some help, I have a GS Racing 1/10 scale car with a GS15 engine. I can get it to start with some fuel in the carbi and it will idle until the fuel runs out of the carbi then it stops. I have cleaned the carbi so that it is free flowing and I Can push fuel through the line. I feel as though it is not sucking fuel through the line. Could this be true? Or does anyone have a different theory. Please help cheers
 
Need some info probably first.

Is this your first nitro RC?
Is this a new RC?
Does your tank have a built in filter?
Is the engine side exhaust or rear exhaust?
If you disconnect the pressure line from the tank and have it connected to the pipe, can you blow into it and hear the air come through the pipe?

If you disconnect the fuel line from the tank and have it connected to the engine, open the throttle then blow into it and hear the air come through the carb?
