Truck is sluggish and dying on take off, been looking online for help even getting to a starting point on it with no luck.

Any help would be great...
 
Is it new?...if its old then it's most likely shot, if you like it you can rebuild, ebay has parts.

I just finished rebuilding my axial .32spec1 with T.K.O bearing, new sleeve/piston, and conrod, and some o-rings, might not be worth it but I couldn't just let an engine block go to waste!....it was eating at my nerves every time I looked at it.
 
Tuning an axial is pretty much like tuning other engines, have a look at your mid range needle/or fuel sprayer bar if it suits you!, it should be flush with the housing it screws into...over time you o-rings wear out and that sprayer bar can fallout or vibrate its way into the carb, this causes other tuning problems that have to do with the HSN, and the LSN not operating in tune with the sprayer bar. You can tune around this problem, but its easier to just reset your sprayer bar to flush with carb housing

This is some compiled data , engine tuning. By some guy with no pants. I once knew a girl called 2 pants but that's a story for another time
