New to RC - few questions

[andoskyy]

Hi All,

Just picked up a barely used T-Maxx 2.5 a few weeks ago. I have it running fairly well and have read and re-read countless tuning threads.
First question is surrounding my idle screw. I can get it to start and idle properly, but when i blip the throttle, it starts revving high again and eventually slows down. I can't seem to find the spot between a proper idle and stalling. i've lubed and cleaned everything in the carb and nothing seems to be sticking. any suggestions?


Also, when it does stall, it seems to need a 3-4 minute rest before it starts up again. any idea what causes this?


Last one...my truck came with dual exhaust. Should i keep on it on there, or is that only increasing my tuning headache?

Thanks in advance!

imo dule exhaust is junk. as for your tuneing do you have the high and low speed nedils tuned and if so what temp is the motor runing at.

Sounds to me like a blown motor I had the same simptoms with mine when I had a blown motor.
