nitro will only stay started if the i keep my glow plug igniter on it or if i give it gas at the same time.
 
Things to check:
- Low Speed needle is Excessivly Rich?
-Idle Mixture Screw setting is incorrect?
-Old fuel?
-Engine is getting overly worn out (Weak Compression)?
-Too cold outside - try pre-heating engine with a hair dryer, heat gun. Don't use a torch.
-Try a freash glow plug.
