Engine Issue (ERR!)

[KevinGalusha]

Ok, I ran a whole tank of fuel in my Traxxas Pro .15 engine no problem. I was warming it up part of the way then started doing some hot laps on the road. Then I took it to the dirt and started running it for about 3 minutes, then when I would let off that throttle for a second, it would bog down and die when i give it gas again. So I go to fire it up, and would not start unless I open the throttle with the transmitter. (Flooded?) I Leaned the HSN and Richened it. NO difference. Can you help a brother out?

I'm sure others will chime in with other suggestions but off the top of my head you could have an air leak. All the bashing around may have loosened some of your seals on the engine and/or carb. If adjusting the LSN or HSN isn't having any effect at all, check to see that you haven't broken a needle in the carb.

It sounds like you need to start leaning the LSN slightly till the take off is good. Don't make any adjustments till the engine is warmed up, and keep an eye on the temps.
