You don't actually run an engine at factory settings ,its merely a setting after break-in has been done to start
a fresh tune!

Factory sets are too rich ,an you need to watch a fine tune vid. that has been posted!

A fine tune vid will show you how to adjust your HSN & LSN needle settings by step by step ,
an show how a running engine sounds when making those changes!....

Check out post #2 here: https://www.rcnitrotalk.com/forum/threads/nitro-tuning-tips-and-tuning-flow-chart.60832/#post-537066

Shows you how to set it by eye to get a base setting, also how to fine tune with the engine running.

Having issues getting the carburetor arm in the right position for linkage the little arm or barrels has a set screw in it

 

[olds97_lss]

Yeah, that's a 1.5mm grub screw if I remember right. Usually, once I remove it, I replace it with a good 2.5mm cap head screw as the threads are the same. Then I don't run the risk of stripping it, or if I do, I have a head that I can still grab on to with pliers.

 

[Little chicken T-Maxx]

Okay but still didn't answer my question the carburetor arm which way which way is it supposed to Face

You didn't ask. Your wording made it sound like you were having a hard time getting it on or off, not in the right position.

This is how the linkage should be lined up and you can see which way you should point the throttle arm on the carb:

 

[Little chicken T-Maxx]

What's the direction does the throttle lever have to be set at

On the carb shaft

On the carb shaft

Pointing forward.

You think diagram of carb would help we cuz I found one on the internet soso hopefully so hopefully that will help

 

[Little chicken T-Maxx]

I adjusted the carb gap at little bit better and adjusted the idle screw it does not died when applying the.

brakes now but when start giving the full throttle a starts to Bob down and the hit full throttle lot open it is

kills it and to add throttle is applied and let and letting off of the throttle it still revs up

 

[Little chicken T-Maxx]

It bogs down when you accelerate to Full Throttle and approaching Full Throttle it is stalling out and and it never issue is when you give it throttle and back off the throttle it's still going

Remove nitro motor and check it over a couple of pipe for the muffler was loose fuel filter was dirty and clutch shoes look good what a lot of clutch dust reset carb to break in specs
