RC Driving Style
I rolled the truck it cut out i flipped it over and went to start in and noticed that it was tring to take off like the trassmission was engaged so i took the clutch apart and put back together and now the truck rev but goes no where so i tightened the clutch nut and truck wanted to take off while starting backed nut off 1/4 turn started and the would not take off when i applied throttle any help would be nice thank you in advance
 
i have adjusted the idel and all hsn lsn and idle screw nothing seems to be working
 
i dont know now that you reassembled it.

I agree. You seem to be turning any screw or nut you can find, several of which would have nothing to do with the problem but will cause their own problems.
Take out your manual and sit down with it, and have the truck next to you. Read all about the clutch and the slipper, set them accordingly and try again. Adjusting your HSN, LSN or idle has absolutely nothing to due with the current problem unless it was just a high idle to begin with.
 
If it will run but not move. Start at the engine and follow the drive train, see where the moving parts, meet the non moving parts and you'll find the problem.
Start with the flywheel first, clutchbell, spur gear.....etc.
 
As for the truck trying to take off when you are starting it.... the transmission must be engadged... fun times. On one of the gears inside the transmission there is a pin that pops out when the gear spins fast enough.... Sounds stuck...

As for the engine reving and the truck not moving after you loosened the slipper... that sounds self explanitory
