on my kyosho gx 12 the pull start will not move i thought it was flooded but when i tuk the glow plug out nd turn it upside down nothng happend no fuel came out :S whats wrong. by the way I'm a beginner
 
I'm no expert but u have either broke the spring in the pullstart and it has binded the assembly or the bad news the motor has seized !u should take the pullstart off and see if it will move and recoil when not on if so the motor may be seized but I'm new as well so maybe wait b4 u get too worried if the pullstart is binded up breathe a sigh of relief and go get a new one HTH
 
I wouldn't freak out about the motor being seized quite yet. There's a lot of things that could be wrong other than that. Just make sure to do the proper break in before you start ripping or roaring. I'm thinking that either there's a problem with the pull-start or the one way bearing. Does the pull start unwind when you pull it out or does it not move at all?
 
i fixed thats and had it running but i now have another problem... my car starts up and everything but when i try and pull away it just makes like a crunshing noise but when i lift it off the floor nd throttle it the wheels move :S. so why wont it move on the ground?
thanks for the replies aswel

I honestly have no idea what it is you are trying to post here. How about trying again, adding some punctuation and making an attempt to spell better. Seriously, I cannot tell what it is you are trying to say is wrong.
 
When he says crunching sounds, i can't help but wonder if that engine is mounted properly.
