RC Driving Style
New Savage 4.6 new pull start & glow driver. Glow plug is red hot. When I remove my glow plug as if engine is flooded and place my hand over the engine i feel/see no fuel splashing on my hand. Help me please, I want to play with this toy ASAP!:angry:
 
Try removing the vacuum pipe off the exhaust and blowing through it until you see petrol reach the carb, try again and give it a little gas.
 
Warm the engine with a hair dryer before trying to start it. Have read and understand that it needs to have a break-in procedure done before you go ripping it up around the yard?
 
I had a similar issue with my OFNA dm1 spec. The factory left the silicone plug in my exhaust pipe and because of the blockage, I could not get fuel to the carb. All you would have to do is separate the pipe from the system and check if its in there. I know its a rarity but these things are mass produced.
 
I got it started. I had to adjust my idle and it did the trick. Thanks for the advice guys I am sure it will all come in handy soon enough.

thanks again Gentlemen
