rush problems

[dimmu of bodem]

i have no clue whats wrong with my rush evo. the engine will run fine for 2min then it seems like the idle was turned up really high. i had to run after it a couple of times. i am wondering if it is a easy fix or not?

Sounds like the low speed needle is a little high, or the idle is high... It could also be an airleak... Check fuel lines to make sure there are no tears.

i just replaced my fuel line and it is still doing it. i took it to my lhs and the dude said it was most likely a air leak inside the engine or fuel line. i also am having another problem. i just got a pull start because i broke my roto start. i think there is something wrong because it is getting really hard to pull it. it is like i pull and it goes then it is hard to pull then it will let go again it will do that like 5 times in one full pull.

Ok. How old is the engine? How much fuel has gone through it? It sounds like its a new engine, and the pinch is still high. Check for anything around the flywheel, like rocks or other debris.

about a half a gallon last year and about a half a quart in the last month. i have not been able to drive it to much because i can't put a full tank throuth i have to stop it and start it again. it is like 2 years old but i didnt really use it alot.

i think i figure it out. it was a air leak. it might be coming from the gas tank primer. has anyone hear of that?

LOL! You should of told us about that first!!! The primers are almost always big air leak problems!!!

well i just got a racing fuel tank with no primer. it is still doing it. what are some other things that could be making this happen.
