Nitro sport questions

[estep64]

I have a few questions about my nitro sport, when I accelerate at full throttle it seems to bog down a bit then take off, Iam running temps about 275, also my brakes don't seem to be right, when I apply them sometimes they will barely work and sometimes not at all, also after about half a tank of fuel it seems to not want to idle, and when it dies it will have to cool down before it will start back. Thanks for all the help.

Sounds like a worn out piston and sleeve, or possibly an air leak. When the metal is hot it expands, giving you less compression, therefore making it harder to start and robbing your low end power.

Is this truck new?

Yes it is new, hasn't had about half a gallon of fuel ran through it.

Seal it. Read the tuning tips and flow chart in the nitro forum. All the sealing info you need.

Already sealed it about two weeks ago
