Hello and thank you for taking the time to read this post. I have tried to attach necessary images and videos to this post to explain myself as best as possible. VIDEO:
A while ago I got my father old Protech Promax 1/6 scale nitro RC car out from the shed it had been sitting in for a good while (years). I cleaned it up and got it running with my little knowledge of Nitro RC cars. All was well and everything was going good, I purchased a new remote control for the car and was ready to begin tuning it!
This is where it all went... in the opposite direction shall we say haha. So I watched a few YouTube videos about tuning a nitro RC car and familiarized myself with the basics. I started to tune my old Protech Promax when I noticed that the carb doesn't have a low speed needle.. Instead there is just a piece of metal covering where it should be as if it should be there but... it's not it is very strange. Due to this reason I don't really know how to tune this RC car.
High Speed Needle
Where I thought the Low Speed Needle should be located..
Mid-Range Needle
Although it is running it makes a strange revving noise sometimes when I release the throttle. I am not sure if this is to do with the tuning attempt that I did to the RC car or something else. I have also recently purchased an infered temp gun that I am still yet to use.
I hope someone can help me with this problem I am having because I am really pulling my hair out about it, how can I stop the weird rev noise and make the car run properly...
