having trouble with my rs4

[grumpy1jr]

I have a hpi rs4 and I'm having problems with it. when i start it runs but when i go to give it gas there is no response, It just idles. I check everything for the throttle and its all connected and when i give it gas the throttle opens. the rpms dont change nothen. So i was wondering it anyone has any ideas on what it could be?:\

The arm that connects you thottle servo to the carby is probably loose, maybe you can tighen it up and see if that helps. Its a nut on the side of the carby right next to the LSN.

ok i just check that and it is tight.

Maybe there is a blockage in the carby? other than that I have not heard of anyone else having a problem like your describing.

Ya i dont now. its weird, it starts up and it idles just fine. but when i give it gas there is no response to it. well i will just play with it for awhile and see if i can get anything out of it.
