Nitro starting problem

[Teegee28]

Help!!!

Just got a 1:10 nitro buggy and think I have a problem (not sure). When I pull the pull-start without the glow plug it pulls nice n easy. When I put in the glow plug, it feels as though it is is being hit as you pull the pull-start (metal hitting metal sound). This only happens with the last full turn of the glow plug. Is this normal or do I have a problem. Thanks for any assistance. Teegee

Is it new or used?

Brand new

You are dealing with very tight tolerances and high compression since it's not broken in yet.
That last turn shuts off any way of bleeding off compression.

Cheers Rolex. I guess that this is quite normal and it's just a case of breaking it in slowly and things should be good?

That's correct. Best of luck with it.
Take the time to do it right.

Cheers for that. Appreciate your time and quick responses

back the plug out just a little. that will let a little pressure out. then when it starts run it back in.
