so as you guys may know I've got the t-maxx assembled and up to snuff....but when I try to start it i can get it going pretty easy at slightly open throttle but when I try to cut back the carb to idle it shuts off and wil not start again untill i reopen the throttle!!!

do you have any ideas what my problem may be......i really wanna go bash but I can't unless it stays running.....HELp:depress:
 
well I figured it out.....i just kept on tightening the head using the X pattern till the compreesion came to where i wanted it......I guess I didnt know how tight it had to be, but now compression is real good, the system is leakproof and it runs out the entire tank...I have ot running real rich, but its runnin, temps are about 200 after warm up and i guess thats from having it so rich..but now its to dark to go bash it...damn
well theres always tomorrow

thanks for all your help guys....lol, prolly better to figure this stuff out by your self anyways, its hard to troubleshoot from my vague descriptions[move]:w00t:[/move]
