So I bought a nitro car recently, my first. And it's been a complete pain in the backside to be honest.
First time I tried to drive it, it kept dying at WOT. After about 2 hours of driving it just would not start. No matter how hard I tried I couldn't get it to fire.
The next day I could start it with considerable effort but it would die after removing the igniter. Everyone told me this was a glowplug issue. So I bought 2 new plugs and waited a week for them to arrive.
They arrived today and I put one in the car and the car started after considerable effort. Idled and I could drive. Car wasn't dying at WOT anymore but had hardly any power. Was slow and not hitting second gear.
After about 30 minutes I stopped the engine to refuel. After that the engine would not idle no matter how hard I tried. EVEN THOUGH it was working literally a *** minute ago. Every time I removed the igniter it would die.
I tried the other plug and the car wouldn't even start. I checked the plug with the igniter and it doesn't even glow.
Have you ever heard of glowplugs being this terrible?
