hi i need help with my chaos when i start it the wheels spin on full throtel and then it shuts off i think it might be the throtel servo but I'm not sure can any one help?

 

[rc chris]

and now it wont start

 

[Metalhead Matt]

We'll start with basic radio gear setup to determine or eliminate the servo theory. With the radio system on(with fresh batteries installed), check to see that the servo is opening and closing the carb barrel properly. If it is, then you probably have an air leak. Or a broken clutch spring. Or both. Hold on a minute, your the guru. You should be teaching us stuff. Start a new thread and use punctuation if the few things I mentioned doesn't help.

its a new engine but i think it might have a leak some where

 

[Metalhead Matt]

Most people seal their new engines before installing them to eliminate air leak problems.

 

[rc chris]

i think its the carb

 

[Metalhead Matt]

Pull the engine out, seal the back plate, carb throat and header with high-temp, sensor safe copper rtv. Reset to factory settings and go from there. You may need to seal the hsn housing as well.

can you use 20% fuel with this car?

 

[Metalhead Matt]

Most likely. It's the standard % for rc fuel.

After two years I took the car from the attic It works perfectly but does not stay on idle running. The wheels keeps on spinning and the car does not stay still. Any ideas?

 

[Metalhead Matt]

Broken clutch spring.

 

[mcbilal]

how am I going to fix that with no experience?:\

 

[Metalhead Matt]

This is how you gain experience. Pop the engine off, pop the clutch bell off, and see what's going on. If you don't have the instruction manual, google it. It's your most important tool. If your clutch is a 2 shoe design with a spring wrapped around the shoes to keep them from engaging at idle, you'll notice the broken spring or a broken shoe. Figure out what parts you need and replace them. Rough up the clutch bell and shoes with fine grit sand paper to ensure good engagement. Be sure to use locktite on the engine screws, and any other screw that thread into metal.
