I have Laro Rush 4x4 with a nitro engine that as Top 3.5 written on it.

I want to check carburetor factory defaults, but I can find the engine anywhere on the web.

What does the other side have stamped on it. I found it on a hpi buggy. I will put up a link for ya
You can try this. I usually start between 3-4 turns out on (HSN). And flush to carb slide on the low speed. Witch really shouldn't be messed with to much. It's more likely the high speed needle that's out of adjustment..

Hi STONER RC,

Thanks for the info.

On the other side of the engine it has the same TOP 3.5.
An expert from a local store told me it's a Novarossi TOP 3 P.

But I still was not able to find the engine manual.

I tried contacting http://www.novarossidirect.com/ but no reply so far.

Honestly start 4 turns out. Might be rich. But better to be rich then lean. Start there then lean out from there. That's what I would do. Good smoke. And slight drip of fuel would be good place to start. Just make sure you warm up the casing and head..since it's sat for so long

And never heard of the company. To be honest
