Hey guys I'm running into an issue where my t maxx will idle but when I accelerate it cuts off. I'm trying to adjust the high speed needle on my engine back to factory settings how do I know if my needle is set back to normal? a very newbish question possibly but I am new haha so any help without sarcasm would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for the help in advance......

Go to this site http://traxxas.com/support/PDF-Downloads-Previous-Modelsand download the manual for your particular truck that would be your best I've read almost every manual and exploded view traxxas has and it has helped me enormously.... but it sounds to me like you need a good tune check your fuel lines, tank o ring, and fuel filters maybe throw in a new glow plug, go back to factory settings according to the manual for your particular kit and start tuning just remember SMALL adjustments and pay attention to your smoke and engine temp

on the hsn turn it clockwise slowley until it bottoms out but dont tighten it down and damage o-rings. Then count 4 turns out from closed. That will be stock needle on hsn. Lsn will be flush with the carb slide not what you hook your linkage to
