Hello! I have swapped a Dynamite .28 engine into a Sportwerks Turmoil 1/8th scale buggy. It has all new fuel lines plus a filter, fresh glow plug but will not run unless it gets fuel dumped down the carb. The tank is pushing fuel out of the line outlet point but it still fails to start. I have went through at leas 4 different glow plugs and still nothing. Any advice? I'm at a loss here lol
 
If it's the Dynamite .28 motor comes on the Losi 8ight-T RTR, double check your idle gap and set your LSN and HSN flush to the base. If it's the Dynamite .28 Mach 2 engine, it uses a turbo plug and not a glow plug. Difference is, glow plug uses a copper gasket as the turbo plug doesn't...

If after setting the needles, try disassemble the nipple and needle to clean it. Most of the time if it does not have a fuel filter, it can clog.
