i just came inside from fidgetingwith my hpi rtr rs4 Evo and it wont start i checked the glow plug and its workin just fine. i got a boil on my finger to show it what could it be?
 
Has it been broken in yet? Has it ever run at all? If it has run before reset the needles to the factory settings, then tune it from there, it will be rich but thats ok, it should at least get it running. If it has never run, do the same thing, make sure the needles are at factory settings, then on with the break in from there. Also make sure fuel is getting to the carb, if you have clear lines this is easy to see, if not look down the throat of the carb to see if you have fuel getting to the engine.

well good luck on breakin it in. remember the more time you spend breakin it in the longer your engine will last if yu treat it right.
