my team losi eight will onlly starts when i gas it. If i let off then gas it dies right away. I as wondering if it was to lean or rich. I am new with tuning and i suck at it. thanks for the help:)
 
I'm pretty sure it's an idling problem. When you throttle, you're opening up the carb hole. If you idle, you keep your carb hole in a closed position. Too closed and your engine will not get the sufficient amount of air to keep the engine alive. Try opening the carb hole a bit.
 
Sounds like a lean low end needle. Try richening your low end needle about 1/16th of a turn.
