hey i had my tmax running last night and it just randomly stoped running after half a tank! i was confused so i took it home and foud out it was the glowplug... i put a new 1 in 2day and now i have NO moivement and the revs are soooo low and even when i fully accelerate i get VERY low revs! any ideas why?? thanks guys!!
 
check all your fuel lines and the gas tank expecally around the top where the fuel line goes into the tank it's the weak point will crack or break off.
 
check your fuel lines for places where the lubricating oil separated from the fuel.but also keep in mind that a radical change in glow plug type will cause you to have to re tune. lean it out and see if that helps, if not richen it up. hope this helps
 
two things.Try putting your idle a little higher or put your trim on your transmitter higher.Second is your glow plug shorter that your old one if so replace it for a longer one.also make sure your igniter is fully charger.
 
thanks for your help ppl!!!... but while i was in the process of trying these thing my F##KING conrod snapped and shatteded all of the bottom of my piston!! :angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry: so no plying with me car until i can get a new set! :(
